Fun Facts About Pineapple

Pineapples do not continue to ripen after they’ve been harvested.
They have the ability to regenerate. To grow a pineapple plant, you can cut the top off of a pineapple and plant it in the ground.
Pineapple is a great meat tenderizer because it contains an enzyme called bromelain, which breaks down protein. However, eating too much pineapple can lead to tenderness in the mouth due to the enzyme bromelain.
When European explorers first saw the fruit, they named it “pineapple” because of its resemblance to the pine cone.
It can take anywhere from 16-28 months for a pineapple plant to produce fruit.
A pineapple plant can only grow one pineapple at a time.
Pineapple plants look like buried pineapples, because the visible part is the top leaves. However, the fruit itself grows entirely above ground.
They are a part of the bromeliad family and are one of the few members that can produce edible fruit.
The flower of the pineapple plant produces berries that group around the core. Once the flower turns to fruit, it is actually several hundred “fruitlets” clustered together.
Pineapple contains about half of the recommended daily amount of Vitamin C. It is said that after the Columbus and the European explorers encountered pineapple, they started using the fruit on their ships to prevent scurvy, likely thanks to the high vitamin C content.

Yum...pineapple, cream cheese, toasted coconut, nuts, sounds like a delicious Summer treat to me. These Amish Pineapple Bars are tropically delicious. They are sweet and savory, and creamy coconutty. (is that a word?) Anyway, these bars are easy to make, and richly rewarding for any Summertime get together. Make these once, and they will surely become your "go-to" recipe throughout the Summer.

These bars were more cake-like than I had anticipated. But they were good nonetheless!

The cakey bottom is delicious, and the cream cheese frosting really gives these bars a decadence that is unexpected. The toasted coconut and nuts on top really take the cake, so to speak. I'll be these would be great with almonds replacing the walnuts, too,

These bars are really delicious! I loved the mix of pineapple, coconut, and cream cheese frosting. Next time I'll probably make this in a cake pan because this recipe tastes more like cake than bars to me. Still delicious either way!

I've tried many times and cannot get your suggested recipes to email back to me. Why? Ellen

Hi Ellen, and thank you for your comment. We have tested the print button that is at the top of the recipe, next to the other sharing options such as Pinterest, Facebook, etc. It is functioning, but it is possible that the emails are getting caught in your spam folder. We advise that you check your spam folder to see if the emails are there. If possible, try sending yourself an email from an alternate email address so that the two email addresses are different. This may prevent it from getting caught in spam. Hope this helps!

I wish all your recipes had a "Print" icon so they could be printed off. Some have, some don't. I don't need all the pictures and idle chat throughout the recipe.
