with edible multiple fruit consisting of
coalesced berries,[1] named for resemblance to the pine cone,[2] is the most economically important plant in
the Bromeliaceae family.[3] Pineapples may be cultivated from a crown
cutting of the fruit,[4] possibly flowering in 20–24 months and
fruiting in the following six months.[4][5]Pineapple may be consumed fresh, canned, juiced,
and are found in a wide array of food stuffs – dessert, fruit salad, jam, yogurt, ice cream, candy, and as a
complement to meat dishes. In addition to consumption, in the Philippines the
pineapple’s leaves are used as the source of a textile fiber calledpiña, and is employed as a component of wall paper and
furnishings, amongst other uses.
