Curiosity
Pineapple is an excellent source of high quality fiber given its consistency, its length, its ability to retain large amounts of water and dye, its resistance to salt and traction. In some countries, pineapple fibres are used in the clothing industry (due to its silk-like consistency) and in the paper industry (pineapple fibre is used to produce thin, flexible sheets of paper).
The use of by-products of pineapple plant processing has been encouraged for the production of animal feed. The leaves can be used in three forms: fresh, dried and silage. Hearts and skins, together with molasses, are used for animal feed.
An alternative use of the fruit involves its use in the pharmaceutical industry, thanks to a substance extracted from the pineapple stalk by means of the precipitation technique: bromelain, an enzyme used for at least ten years and traditionally produced in Hawaii, but currently extracted in other countries such as Taiwan, Thailand, Brazil and Puerto Rico. Its effects are manifold: it facilitates the digestive process, controls the evolution of inflammatory states and helps recovery from sports injuries. Bromelain is used in the food industry, as it can make meat softer, but it is also used as an additive in beer to make it lighter; in protein solubilization; in the treatment of fish waste. It is also used in the production of hydrolysed proteins, increasing the solubility of gelatine.
Pineapple contains about 80-85% water and 81-87% moisture, 13-19% total solids, while fibre can reach 2-3%. Among the organic acids, citric acid is the most important. The pulp has a low content of ash, nitrogen compounds and lipids (0.1%). From 25 to 30% of nitrogen compounds are proteins. Fresh pineapple contains mineral salts such as calcium, potassium, phosphorus and sodium, as well as being a rich source of vitamin C.

History
The Italian word ‘ananas’ comes from 'nanas', which in the Tupi language means “excellent fruit', as recorded by André Thevet in 1555; Comosus, ‘in tufts', refers to the stem of the fruit. In English, the fruit is called ‘pineapple’, while in Spanish it is called ‘ananá’ or ‘piña’, ‘pinecone’. The species is native to South America and is said to come from the area between southern Brazil and Paraguay. Little is known about the origin of the domestic pineapple but M. S. Bertoni (1919) considers the drainage basin of the Paraná-Paraguay River the place of origin of the pineapple comosus. The oldest representation of the fruit is found in the CascajalBlock, attributed to the Olmec civilization. It was brought to the Caribbean islands by the then Caribs and it was seen for the first time in Guadeloupe in 1493 by Christopher Columbus, although in reality, fruits similar to pineapples appear in some Roman mosaics and in a statue, which suggests that it was already known in antiquity. It was then brought to Europe, and from here it spread to the Pacific Islands thanks to the Spanish and the English. There are many commercial plantations in Hawaii, the Philippines, South-East Asia, Latin America, Florida and Cuba. In the Caribbean, Europe and North America, the pineapple has been associated with the return of vessels from long voyages and has become an emblem of welcome and hospitality.
Native to South America, the pineapple arrived in Europe more than five centuries ago thanks to Christopher Columbus, who saw it for the first time in 1493 on the island of Guadeloupe, in the Antilles. Afterwards, the Portuguese and Spanish introduced pineapple cultivation in their colonies in the south of Africa and Asia. It is a perennial plant, with long tough leathery leaves in a grey-green hue. The adult plants reach 0.9-1.8 m in height and width. The pineapple does not grow in a truly wild state, and the areas where it is grown are usually limited to a lower altitude under 800 m above sea level, although there are some exceptions; Kenya has production fields located between 1400 and 1800 m and Malaysia over 2400 m. When pineapple is grown at altitudes above 1000 m, the fruits produced are smaller, the pulp has a less attractive colour, and the flavour is more acidic. Optimal growth seems to be between 20-30°C, with an optimum of 23-24°C.
