6 - 7 pieces Golden Pineapple aka "Huang-Jin-Bo-Luo", "黄金波萝", "黃金波蘿" Golden pineapple is a tropical fruit with pine cone-shaped and spiky, rough skin topped with a crown of spiky g reen leaves. The skin turns from green to yellowish-orange as the fruit ripens. The flesh is bright yellow, juicy, and intensely sweet. It is recommended to soak peeled pineapple in saltwater before consumption to remove the stinging sensation that some may feel after eating the pineapple. Golden pineapple is available year-round. Handling Tip Selection Golden pineapple is firm and heavy for its size with no signs of decay. The leaves are vibrant green and moist. The individual fruitlets or eyes are flat. Golden pineapple has a pleasant fruity fragrance near the bottom of the fruit. Golden pineapples do not ripen after harvesting. Storage Golden pineapple should be stored at 45°F - 55°F (7°C - 12°C) with a relative humidity of eighty-five to ninety-five percent and with no mist. The typical shelf life is fourteen to twenty days for unripe pineapple and seven to ten days for ripe pineapple at 45°F (7°C). Golden pineapple is moderately sensitive to ethylene, a naturally occurring gas that regulates ripening. Ethylene exposure slightly shortens pineapple shelf life. Golden pineapple produces a low level of ethylene. Golden pineapple is sensitive to chilling injury after prolonged storage or storage below 45°F (7°C). Symptoms include aging leaves (wilting, drying, and discoloration), darkcore, and water-soaked flesh. Sometimes, symptoms are not apparent until a return to the higher temperature.
