#Eatwell challenge: Pineapple
This week: New ways to enjoy this sweet tropical treat
Every week we challenge you to add something new to your diet by taking up our #Eatwell challenge.
Pineapples originated from South America and are now grown in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. In case you’re wondering, the name probably came from their resemblance to pine cones. Another interesting fact is that a pineapple is actually made up of many small fruitlets that fuse together around a fibrous core. At Woolies you’ll find the best, sweetest locally grown pineapples whole, dried or in convenient snack packs.
