I love pineapple, but rarely buy the fresh stuff, partly because of the effort involved in getting to the eating. The other part is that a whole pineapple is usually a bit much for me on my own. When I have bought pineapple in recent years it has mostly been the precubed stuff, though I find my shop often doesn't sell just pineapple; rather you have to buy their selection of fruit salad which is sometimes to my taste and sometimes not.
