Appreciate the time you've taken to make these videos and pass on your knowledge and research on the various fruits. Everybody seems to want everything condensed into minute and seconds nowadays...Good education takes time !!
Thanks a lot. Back then, I used to eat pineapple a lot and I really enjoyed them, but I would always get this weird irritation/burning/stinging sensation on my tounge and I would I have to wait out the burning sensation or go to sleep. Thanks for making this video, it helped me a lot
My daughter is stationed in Oahu right now. She was just on this tour with her in laws. Nice. I had an allergy test done because I was sure I was allergic to pineapple. It always burns my mouth. Now I know why. Great!
Wow! Actually now seeing those little flowers on the baby pineapple makes sense. I always wondered why the pineapple seeds were in the outside skin, now I know!
One of the best things I ever tasted in my life was in a bar at the New York Shore where they made Pina Coladas with real coconut and pineapple ... all mixed up and served inside the hollowed out pineapple. Never liked coconut before until that moment, it was amazingly good.
The Hawaiian pineapple is like nothing you find in stores in the states! The Hawaii gold is the best sweetest I've ever tasted and doesn't bother our mouths. Wish we could reliably find it in Las Vegas.
I love crunching the pineapple core! When I visited a lady with two young boys in Durban, South Africa, I helped cut up some small round pineapples. I was trimming off the core and one of the boys said 'Mom! She's cutting off the best part!' That was when I learned to love pineapple cores.
Canning was invented in 1806, not the 1900's. That's more than 200 years old. Before canning, people used many other methods of preservation including drying, pickling, salting, smoking, fermentation, jamming, jellying, jugging, freezing, sugaring, and combinations thereof. Canning is only the second most recent development in preservation, with only freeze-drying being more recent. This is not to say that raw foods weren't eaten, it's just that you get a week to eat your raw food, and during that week, you'd best be preserving everything that you can't consume while fresh. Also, as you should well know, many foods of the ancient world required processing of some kind in order to be healthy. Most legumes must be cooked before eating as they contain toxins. Nearly all tubers must be cooked to eliminate toxins as well, including the common potato and most yams. Castor oil may be good for you, but avoid eating the beans as they contain ricin, eating only ONE castor bean contains enough ricin to potentially kill you, two is a near certainty. Everyone should know by adulthood that Bitter Almonds contain cyanide, until the oil is extracted safely (sweet almonds are safe to eat). Of course, we also know not to eat rhubarb greens, as they are just as poisonous as tomato and potato greens and stems. Some foods increase in nutritional value when cooked, like mushrooms, corn, and tomatoes. Raw food just doesn't provide enough calories. You have to get out more than you put in, and raw food takes a lot more work (meaning calories) for your muscles and organs to chew and digest, resulting in a net decrease in the amount of calories available for the rest of your cells. But you can only spend so many hours of the day eating--there must be time to sleep, forage and procreate, too. This limits the amount of calories you can get per day, and it turns out this is directly related to how many neurons you can grow. Cooking most vegetables frees up the nutrition, especially carbohydrates, and makes them easier to digest. Basically, Raw does not guarantee healthy food.
i feel like i only comment, " i love you john. " But what i mean when i say that is THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING you do. You are awesome, thank you.
This has got to be the most thorough and BEST pineapple video ever made in the world, right from the source, in Hawaii! Thanks so much for doing this!!! :) I'm ordering some yummy pineapple from Hawaiian Crown too, I remember them from my last trip to Honolulu! xoxo
John I appreciate the videos that you post (despite what others may think)... thank you for taking the time to educate those (me) that want to really learn, I'm not the type of person that just wants to know something I want to know why/when/where. Please do not change how/what you do, when I come to your videos I am prepared and ready to learn.
+Arthion If you decide to move from Sweden, please try to drop the expression "you guys" from your vocabulary. When you meet Americans who don't know any better, just look for more intelligent friends.
I'm with ya on that! It would be nice to have access to their variety of produce on a daily basis. Minus the dickheads that complain simply because someone said "you guys".
Haha glad you mentioned the mouth burn. I personally have an intense burning reaction to uncooked pineapple and i get the same reaction from kiwis. Ive told several people about my reaction to pineapple and i havent found anyone else who gets the same burning response, so I'm concluding that not everybody is sensitive to the enzymes in it.
Very valuable! I never knew how pineapples grow either. I kind of thought they grew on trees too! I've been so disappointed in the pineapples I buy, and my mouth has gotten so burned that I've about given up...but you give me hope! I think I will try to order the particular ones you mentioned. Worth any extra cost to be assured of getting a good pineapple!
Bromelain has a whole range of health benefits, so eating a high bromelain pineapple can be a good thing, provided it's not so concentrated that it burns, or you eat it in moderation to avoid the burn. The core and stem contains higher concentrations than the rest of the fruit, so that's what you want to be eating if bromelain is what you're after.
I like your videos, especially this one. I grow pineapples so this video is of great interest to me. I bought a "Sweet Gold" as it says on the tag but it is from Mexico, not Hawaii. It also is very big, not small. I wonder why both are called "Sweet Gold" but very different. Do you have any idea?
Thanks for the video! Always have such fun and interesting videos! I love that I can hear you so loud and clearly! P. S. You make a cute pineapple! Darlene
John, I find that burn only occurs when you eat the fruit near the skin. The first time it happened I was in Hawaii it was very ripe and sweet but we ate it off the skin...then couldn't taste anything for days. So if you try to get every drop of fruit you do more harm than good. I thought it was the eyes which are small prickers but having a chemical in the outer edge makes more sense .
thanks for the pineapple burn tips!! I love pineapple so much that I suffer from this often...especially because I'm lucky to get a ripe pineapple in the store...I've always wondered why this happens...but I agree that it does seem to help cutting it up the day before and fridging it, or letting it sit for a couple days on the counter before cutting...I always did this because it helped the taste but I didn't know it was also helping reduce the burn!! again, thanks for the knowledge!
John, the local grocery stores in my area (Roseburg, Oregon) suck for pineapples many of them are already rotten inside and it can be hard to tell from the outside. How can I get my stores to do better? I have a similar problem with young coconuts having the meat already hardened!
Next time you buy a fresh pineapple also buy a jar of marshmallow cream/fluff. My grandmother used to give us fresh pineapple chunks with a spoon of marshmallow fluff on top for dessert (or an after school snack) and it is FABULOUS!!! I admit that it's kind of a fight to keep the marshmallow fluff from sliding off the juicy pineapple, but it's worth the fight, I promise!
I have a question. How can you fit so many pineapples in your stomach? I tried eating a pineapple by myself and got about halfway or so, then I felt overly full.
27 minutes? Can we please? I wish your videos where 1-3 mins long. compact information. That way more people would be healthy. You get the same ad revenue per view right?
Im not doing this for ad revenue. I am doing this to share what I have learned to help my fellow man and woman. Shaving 25 minutes off this, and I would not be able to share as much information.
Dont get me wrong I am grateful for the information you share, but I think you would reach a lot more people if you at least had short versions of your videos.
***** Nah, it's a very interesting and informative video, it would be a shame to cut it short. Viewers with shorter attention spans will surely find their way to other, shorter vegan vids that cater to a broader audience.
***** I agree with iCanHazTwentyLetters . wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too long. too much wasted time, extraneous info, and unecessary chatter. after sitting through the 1st minute, i skimmed through the next 4 minutes searching for the information that the TITLE of this video ADVERTISES. Subsequently, I thought to myself, "jesus christ!...26 minutes?! NEXXXXXXXXXT." so. drawn. out. omg
+kasia g basic lack of time for stupid boring and nonuseful informations is defined as a short attention span. by an imbecil. seems legit. I'm afraid how long it would last if there was 4 ways ...
There are new breeds of low acid pineapples that look like a regular pineapple but mostly green when ripe like the Kauai White. Most of those will have a tag showing it as a low acid variety.
Great video, I think few people who live in big cities here in (northern) Europe have ever tasted the true pineapple experience. Best ones I've ever had was in South America with my family. They're really cheap but sweeter than the canned stuff (not kidding).
I just started watching your videos just had to say thank you, ***** , for such informative and great videos. You've made them very interesting and a bit hilarious at the same time!
This is wonderful because I have a diy beauty section on my blog and I do alot of pineapple based skincare and I really needed to find the stage in which the bromelain enzyme is highest because it exfoliates the skin and deep cleanses it so well. Of course YOU would have the answer:)
I put cinnamon on my last pineapple I ate it tasted really good and it didn’t sting I don’t know if the cinnamon stopped the stinging but I heard it can
To reduce the burn from pinaple or chilli is that i drink milk. it work for me. milk ph being close to neutral i guess might help. it wor better than watter in my point of view what helps you guys?
He tells of the 3 ways to end pineapple mouth burn starts at 18:13.
Oh my God you are awesome! yayyy...
thanks for the time hack on how to end the burn
thanks, Cindy!
thank you so much!
Thank you for your sacrifice.
1- pick the freshest pineapple you can find.. 2- cut it up a day in advance to reduce acid burn
3- juice the pineapple
saved your life haha.. :)

It sucks that they have a patent over an organism.
The Navel Orange was patented too.. But, I think the patent expired already.
well they took the time and effort and money to cultivate it
Wow! Actually now seeing those little flowers on the baby pineapple makes sense. I always wondered why the pineapple seeds were in the outside skin, now I know!
I like the way you finished the video with your head in the pineapple photo prop LOL 🤣👍🍍💖

Hi John
What if pineapple does not burn your tongue, but the roof of your mouth instead?
Is that still due to bromaline?
Cha-ching... Florida, Hawaii, Ecuador... flying and staying all over the globe... Dayum... the blender business must be A-ok!
fun!... its amazing all the different varities of fruit... besides all the diff species on earth!
You say favorite fruit to every thing
i feel like i only comment, " i love you john. " But what i mean when i say that is THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING you do. You are awesome, thank you.

jklmnug lol 😂 😂 😂
I've heard pineapples called many things before, but "sexy" is a first.
Sweet. I was a winner :P I picked the little one next to the large Dole one. I don't know why but that little one just looked better to me.

Good for you if you have diabetic. So sweet pineapple.
Thanks for the tips John. I've just added your video to feature on my channel in a playlist entitled 'fruit facts'
Nice video, very interesting, Thanks for sharing !
Aww I wish we had this much variety in Sweden. Just seing the local grown produce you guys have on Hawaii make me consider moving to a warmer climate.
+Arthion If you decide to move from Sweden, please try to drop the expression "you guys" from your vocabulary. When you meet Americans who don't know any better, just look for more intelligent friends.

+Simply DeeDee ---my thoughts exactly!
half an hour on how to eat pinneaple. wow. a candidate for the best scientific project.
Lots of good information. Thanks for sharing! :) Those ripe pineapples look delish!
Thank you! You are knowledgeable, funny and a great HOST!
Have you tried the sugar loaf pineapple? Its mind blowing. Best pineapple ever.
OMG! Those baby pineapples are tooo cute. That's really cool seeing all those different types of pineapples. Thanks for sharing your field trip video
I ran into Peter Dinkelage buying tiny cans of coke at a grocery store... there's probably a whole market for tiny produce. Pete's cool.
Just ordered some to try, thanks John for sharing!
Thanks. a great informative video
Thanks John, I love that pineapple's playing guitar cardboard in the end. so funky
Great information
My daughter started laughing when you sang du du du

What I liked when in Hawaii was they marinated pineapple and Papaya together and the bromelain and Papain canceled eacother.

Most interesting vid, thank you much
Would you please do a video cutting the pineapple for hanging out in the fridge?
I enjoy your videos very much
Thank you for making this video.

great video!!!
I really enjoyed this video. Great info and tips! I would love to be able to try the honey cream pineapple YUM!

26:48 of my life I’ll never get back .... good thing I skipped the video and came to the comments to talk Sh*t 😂
I love your videos! Very informative! Thank you!
thank you for sharing! great information!
You are the definition of awesome
I love pineapples!
John, you are my fav youtuber, thanks for always making me laugh and teaching me something new!
Thank you for that info.!!!
I plan in visiting the dole plantation this fall hopefully :)
Good Tips
Great video, I think few people who live in big cities here in (northern) Europe have ever tasted the true pineapple experience. Best ones I've ever had was in South America with my family. They're really cheap but sweeter than the canned stuff (not kidding).
I live in Kailua here on the Island. Can you do some reviews of Raw Vegan restaurants on the Island?
I already bought a fully golden soft pineapple and it still burned after 1/4 or 1/2 of the fruit, so it is not just about ripeness apparently~
Your humor is priceless 😂😍😎 lol luv it
This is so cool!!
very cool. lots of stuff i didnt know!!! great video man!
the bromaline one is in the middle fibrose middle?
John, where can I buy the seeds for the Honeycream pineapple? All pineapple's have seeds right?
Great Tips for the Bromelain, John! Thank you so much! Cutting the day before and placing in the fridge really works!!!! :D
i have found that if i chew a tums or rolaid and swish it around my mouth for a few seconds it GREATLY reduces the burn
thanks for sharing that! I'll give that a try next time I OD on pineapple.
Since honey is so high on the bricks meter, is it the best thing to eat?
I picked the right one! :)
I just started watching your videos just had to say thank you, ***** , for such informative and great videos. You've made them very interesting and a bit hilarious at the same time!

Steak tastes good so it must be more nutrient dense
John. You are God. Thank you so much for this video. I'm so sick of these unripe bright green pineapples I see at the grocery stores in California
TY for all the info! I love it!
Damn I wish I knew this before I ate a fresh pineapple with the core, MY MOUTH IS FUCKING BURNING!
