The pineapple is a tropical fruit with a unique look. It got its name because it looked like a pine cone. Although most of the production of pineapple takes place in Hawaii, this was not always the case. This is because the pineapple is native to South America. It was brought back to Europe on Christopher Columbus’ second voyage. From there, it spread in popularity all over the world.
Not until the early 1900s did cultivation of the fruit begin in Hawaii. James Dole helped distribute pineapples in the U. S. He started a pineapple plantation in Oahu, one of the islands of Hawaii. He also began canning pineapples with the help of machines. This helped make pineapples affordable and available to the masses.
