Are we sure they're pineapples though, and not grapefruits with a tree stuck on the top?
I'm telling you man, those horse burgers were the tip of the iceburg.

how do they compare in size to the 59p ones from Aldi?
It's so nice to be insane,

Watch out at the till though. I bought one on Monday and only realised after I'd got home that I'd been charged for the large pineapple at £1.

Which is still a good price for a large pineapple, and what I have been paying in Lidl for months.

I checked this morning and the pineapples in Morrisons are slightly bigger than those in Aldi so being cheaper as well swings it for Morrisons.

I got one of the Aldi ones today at 59p. Enormous and it's a Fyffes Gold Super Sweet one at that! Bargain!

I normally cut off the top and bottom then slice off the skin all round, I then quarter the pineapple through the core and slice off the parts of the core from each quarter and dice the flesh of the fruit that remains,
I did get a pineapple corer but it was plastic and too flimsy, I will need to look out for a steel one.

Thanks for this one savethepandas. I don't usually go to morrisons as it is not local to me but yesterday I was passing so popped in a got two pineapples. Also very good value in morrisons compared to garden centre passion flowers at £2. These are much more expensive in the garden centres and are very easy to grow - great climbing plants and very exotic looking for £2!
