Half a large sweet pineapple is the right size for smaller households or when you want fresh pineapple through the week without committing to a whole one. Large, premium fruit already halved and trimmed, selected for its natural sugar content and tropical sweetness.Pineapples are at their best in the warmer months from November through March when tropical growing conditions drive the sweetness to its peak. That is when the large sweet variety is at its absolute finest.Look for a golden yellow base with firm flesh when gently pressed and a strong, sweet fragrance at the base. Avoid any that smell fermented or have started to soften at the edges.Slice and eat fresh, grill alongside pork or chicken, cube into a fruit salad, or blend into a smoothie. Store cut pineapple in the fridge and eat within two days.
