Looks pretty cool although there is no way that I am paying $49 for some pineapples
I almost did. I am glad FLNative posted.
That was my reaction first, but then I remembered purchasing a $100 bottle of champagne once to bring as a New Year's gift to my gf's family. It was yellow and had a rooster on it, the bottle was empty within minutes of being opened, and I don't even drink. So I'm curious to try this fruit! If it doesn't become available locally, I'll purchase one in a few months when I get together with some friends of mine.
It does seem like more of a novelty, and the marketing suggests it is intended to be served with adult beverages.
Also, it appears purchasing any pineapples direct from the growers are just as expensive. I've always wondered why - is it the shipping? Or is there more to it?
