In the past, pineapple was considered a dangerous fruit for pregnant women, but later scientists proved that a woman must eat at least 10 fruits at once in order for them to cause a miscarriage.
Pineapple pulp is 86% water. For comparison, in cabbage, water accounts for about 91% of the mass, and in cucumbers – up to 97%.
This plant itself has a trunk up to a meter high, which becomes wider over the years, and can reach a couple of meters in diameter. And the pineapple fruit is at its top, in the center.
At the beginning of the 19th century, the famous French writer Honore de Balzac, dreaming of getting rich, built greenhouses for growing pineapples in the Parisian suburbs. Alas, his idea failed.
