The Pineapple
The pineapple is a tropical fruit that is of the genus ananas and belongs to the Bromeliaceae family. The first two areas of growth of the pineapple were in South America and the left bank of the Amazon. In 1493, Christopher Columbus discovered the pineapple in Guadeloupe and discovered that there were multiple uses for this fruit by the Southern Americans such as medicinal uses and even war weapon uses. It was not until the 19th century in Hawaii that commercial transportation began, and since then, the pineapple has continued to hold high demand on the international market.
