About Pineapple
Pineapple is the edible fruit of a tropical plant, eaten fresh and used in desserts, drinks, preserves, fruit salads, salsas, marinades, and savoury dishes. It is also sold as juice and used in canned, frozen, dried, and cooked preparations.
Its yellow to golden flesh is juicy and fibrous, with a sweet-tart flavour and fragrant aroma. Pieces may range from tender to firm depending on the product and preparation; the tougher central core may be removed or retained according to its texture.
The fruit has a rough, patterned rind and a crown of stiff leaves. It is sold whole, trimmed, or cut into pieces, with the rind and crown removed for edible preparations. Processing, cooking, drying, and juicing substantially change its appearance and texture.

Reference values for the specific food form shown. Other varieties, brands and preparations can differ.
Portions & preparation
Match the portion to edible pineapple flesh and specify fresh, canned, cooked, frozen, dried, juiced, or drained form. Peels and core are generally excluded when the reference uses prepared flesh. Syrup-packed, sweetened, or blended products require separate consideration from unsweetened fruit.
Compare the right form: Match references to edible pineapple flesh in the specified fresh, canned, drained, dried, juice, or cooked form, including packing medium where relevant.
Diet considerations
Pineapple is a plant-origin fruit. Plain fresh or unsweetened flesh differs from syrup-packed, candied, dried, juiced, or dessert preparations, where carbohydrate patterns and portion concentration change. Compatibility can also shift when dishes add dairy, gelatin, alcohol, cereal ingredients, meat, or other animal-derived components.
