You are buying shitty pineapple. To select a good pineapple:
Tug at the center most leaf on top of the fruit, it should give easily. It should smell like pineapple. The skin should be golden colored to slight green (sl underripe) or a very slight touch brown (overripe). The bottom should be dry. The very green ones that you can get for $2-3 never ripen properly as they were picked too early.
Counterpoint: Oranges, pineapples
Those are incredibly sweet highly acidic foods. The acid is what balances the sweet.
Lemons and limes were right there man, they were right there
They’re not fruits by culinary definition.
Unless you eat them like oranges?😯
In that case, seek help.
Edit: On a serious note, I guess this is cultural difference?
Both of those are sweet and fruit…?
They are sour. Or tart, in case of pineapples.

I want to try the pineapples you’re getting. Ours are sweet, but that’s about it.
