Pineapple known as “Ananas”, is a common fruit is known for its sweetness and delicacy, which has a characteristic flavour and taste. The fruit is described as compound (multiple) type of fruit that develops from many small fruits fused together around central core.

Each fruit measures in size up to 12 inches long and weighs 1 to 8 pounds or more.
