Description/Taste
Red pineapples are generally smaller than common commercial pineapples and grow on a thick stem that is nestled among curved, elongated, and pointed leaves. The oblong to cylindrical fruit has a waxy, fibrous skin that is covered in downward-facing, red-pink spines, and the fruit connects to a leafy and spiked, variegated green-red crown. Underneath the tough skin, the flesh contains hues of white, yellow, and pink, and is dense and somewhat chewy, encasing a hard, central core. Depending on the climate the fruit is grown in, the flesh can be juicy with a sweet and slightly tangy taste and may or may not contain seeds.
Seasons/Availability
Red pineapples are available in the summer through fall in tropical climates.
Current Facts
Red pineapples, botanically classified as Ananas bracteatus, are brightly colored fruits that grow on evergreen plants and are members of the Bromeliaceae or bromeliad family. Native to tropical and subtropical regions of South America, Red pineapples have been introduced around the world as an ornamental plant, highly valued for their showy red fruits and multi-colored leaves. There are several varieties of Red pineapples, and the small fruits are rare to find in commercial markets. Red pineapples are typically found in home gardens and are often used as a natural defense along property lines to protect against unwelcomed animals and people. Though the plants are mainly considered to be ornamental, in tropical climates with a high amount of rainfall, Red pineapples are edible and are consumed fresh or juiced.
Nutritional Value
Red pineapples are an excellent source of vitamin C, which is an antioxidant that can help boost the immune system and contain bromelain, which is an enzyme that has anti-inflammatory properties. The pineapple also contains fiber and manganese, which has been shown to help protect bone composition.
Applications
Red pineapples are edible but will vary in texture and flavor depending on the climate and amount of water the plant has received during the growing process. The fruit can be consumed fresh, out-of-hand by removing the skin, crown, and bottom to expose the flesh. The flesh can then be cut away from the core and diced into pieces. Red pineapples can also be used in fruit salads alongside mangoes, bananas, and citrus, added to smoothies, and pureed or juiced for use in sauces, marinades, and cocktails. In addition to fresh applications, Red pineapple slices can be dried for extended use. Red pineapples pair well with roasted meats such as ham and chicken, creamy cheeses such as blue cheese or cream cheese, black garlic, fennel, and basil. The fruit will keep up to five days when stored whole and upside-down to allow sugars to redistribute from base to crown in the refrigerator. Sliced pieces of fruit will keep 1-3 days when stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
Ethnic/Cultural Info
In Indonesia, Red pineapples have become a modern symbol for prosperity and protection during the Chinese New Year and are favored for combining two ancient traditions into one decoration. Also known as Imlek or the Lunar New Year, the Chinese New Year is celebrated by millions of Chinese Indonesians, and pineapples are regarded as lucky because their Chinese name sounds similar to the Chinese words for ?fortune or prosperity? in certain dialects. Pineapple decorations are adorned in houses and restaurants, and both the real fruit is used along with constructed pineapple lanterns made from paper. Pineapple tarts are also a favored treat during the celebration and are made with a sweet jam delicately placed on top of a baked pastry. In addition to pineapples, the color red is believed to ward off evil during festivities and is displayed through clothing, decorations, and food.
Geography/History
Red pineapples are native to South America and have been found growing in cloud forests, along coastlines, in highlands, and in tropical forests in Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Argentina since ancient times. The brightly colored fruit has also been introduced via trade to other tropical and subtropical regions around the world, including Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and Hawaii. Today Red pineapples are not commercially grown on a large scale and are predominately found as a specialty, ornamental variety in home gardens.

Favorite Slippers Of All Time
Size: 6.5-7.5, Color: Charcoal Faux Fur
ETA 7/2024: So I ended up buying a size 5-6. They fit better around the top and sides of my foot but the sole is a bit small. The 6.5-7.5 sole fits better but the material around the top and sides is roomy so it bunches up. Sigh. I still love these slippers but the fit is frustrating.
I'm obsessed with these slipper boots! They are so cute and comfy.
They look especially good with leggings but I also like that I can tuck other types of pajama pants into them. I'm short and have to fold the waist of most pajama pants so they're not super long on me, but with these boot slippers on I don't have to worry about my pant bottoms dragging on the floor since I can just tuck them in.
I like that they have rubber soles. I love the look of the faux fur but not sure how easy they will be to wash because of it.
I wear a 7 or 7.5 and I got the 6.5-7.5 size. Even with thick socks on they are roomy. Because they are house shoes it doesn't matter much but I probably could've sized down.
I like the way they look so much I might buy a size down and use that pair for wearing outside of my house.
Some other reviews said they have a strong smell but mine did not.

Cozy warm, overall a good slipper!
I ordered a size Medium and I normally wear a women's size 8 US / 39 EUR and they fit well. According to the box, a Medium in Acorn sizing is Women's 6.5 - 7.5, but I do think these run a little large which is why I went with the Medium vs. Large. The boot part fits well, not too snug or too loose, and it stays up if it has something to adhere to (like over pants), otherwise it would slide down my bare leg. I am super sensitive to scratchiness lol, so I keep the boot part over pants because it is a little scratchy to me. These slippers are nice and cozy, so they keep my feet / ankles warm. The footbed provides a nice cushion and the soles/suede guards are strong but without making you feel like you are wearing actual shoes / boots. I have noticed that the footbed does not have a lot of rebound so there are definitely impressions of my toes inside... which means no one else will want to wear them... haha! I've also noticed the seams seem prominent on the inside, I wish they were a less noticeable, but that is just one of my hangups. So, the only reason I am giving a 4 instead of 5 is the inside is not as soft as I'd like and the seam problem. Regardless, I wear these all the time at home (which is where most of us all are right now) and I am happy with them overall. Oh, and I got the Buffalo Check pattern and it's super cute and fun!

Soft, Warm and Cozy
I have no idea how these stay up, probably magic. I'm tall so it's challenging to find boot style slippers that are long enough. If support or thick soles aren't an issue, these are the best I've ever found! My ankles and calves have never BEEN so warm; these are my go-to's in the evening. They're easier to walk in with socks but, without, they're floppy and loose. I'd hesitate to size down because it's more the lack of structure in the foot, not length. They wash well (air dry); still soft, warm and cozy. Inserts could probably be added to help with support. I tried them because I found them at a fantastic sale price but I'm buying another pair now, for winter. I'm a slipper person and I definitely notice the quality of materials in Acorns, when I compare them with other slippers.

My year round footwear
Size: 6.5-7.5, Color: Sunset Cable Knit
I literally LIVE in these "slippers". Inside, summer, winter, outside when I can. I have hardwood floors, so even summertime, they protect my feet. They give me enough cush, but not like structured slippers that feel more like shoes. I go through about 2-3 a year, but well worth it.

Weird sizing
Size: 5-6, Color: Charcoal
Weird sizing/ fit! It says that they run large in length, so I got one group-size down (5-6). (The sizes are in ranges rather than specific individual shoe size numbers). I liked the concept of the suede reinforced toe & heel for longevity. My heel and toes cleared the length/width comfortably/well and the overall width was more than adequate, yet I found them to be rigid-stiff- tight (to the point of cutting off circulation) specifically in the toe. Ok, I knew that was a possibility BUT……while the toe area was tight the ankle and calf were HUGE and would not stay up unless I wore over pants, defeating the purpose of a slipper-sock. The inside cushioning was soft and comfortable. When I walked, my heel would slip out over the sued area, into the wool sock parentheses, making it awkward to walk. Returning…No point in changing sixes, as if I get a larger foot size, the tow may fit better, but the ankle will be beyond too big. Sigh. Unfortunate, as the concept is sound….the manufacturing/sizing is bizarre. BTW : I have normal width feet (not wide or narrow) and my ankles and calves are on the thinner side. The fit may be better suited to people with wider ankles/calves????
