Recipes for fresh pineapple & Quick questions?

I bought a whole Pineapple about 2weeks ago.

I havent cut it open yet but I was wondering will it still be ok after this time and is there anything I need to look out for

If it's gone off it will look a bit mouldy on the outside and smell as though it has started to ferment a bit. Cut it up, if it's brown inside cut the brown bits away and eat everything that looks bright yellow and tastes and smells like lovely fresh pineapple

Thought I'd mention my favourite gadget at the moment, my pineapple slicer.
It's great for cutting perfect pineapple rings and cores it at the same time.

thats funny you show me something like that, i make an awful lot of mess when I cut up my Pineapple. I just did the entire pineapple in one go. Cutting all the outside off. bits of the core and cutting it up into chunks.

I once did this when I had a fresh cut on my Hand, it wasnt pleasant lets say.

I'd just peel it, cube it and have it for breakfast every morning until it's gone

You lot are all fab. knew of upside down cake but live on own and should not eat (but will make one anyway) checked other sites, will do the sweet n sour and freeze, tropical chicken also sounds good. need extra stuff for smoothie but like the idea.

will keep an eye on the page for more ideas.
