Sorted Food guys taste potentially pretentious ingredients and judge them. Just a bit of fun.

    The video (a year old) says they sell for $29.
    One market here sells them for $10 and another sells them for $4.

    It was barely worth the $4 I spent when I tried it.

    A normal pineapple goes for ~$2.50 here, so to me it was worth the $1.50 to try, but DO NOT spend $29 for one. Please.

        So I don’t want to speak too definitively because no matter what, produce can have variance (and I might be bad at telling when a pineapple is optimally ripe) but to me it just tasted like a pineapple. I’ve had better yellow pineapples and I’ve had worse. The one I got was tart and less sweet than I would have preferred. On its own I didn’t really notice a big flavor difference either. Maybe if I had one of each side by side it would be more noticeable.
