Pineapple, a delicious tropical fruit


◾  As we enter spring, we begin to see new fruits together with the traditional ones like bananas, oranges, pears, lemons, mandarins or grapes. Among them, it highlights the pineapple, a tropical fruit that is already part of our Mediterranean tradition, the same as the banana, among other examples.
◾  In Portugal, the pineapple or ananá comes from the Azores (Ananás dos Açores D.O) and the banana comes from Madeira Island.
◾  The pineapple is rich in water, vitamin C and it is deliciously sweet. It is  ideal as a dessert or to start the day as a part of breakfast.   

◾  Fruits are very important in any type of diet and, as well as, bring us color and with it comes nutrients that improve our state of health.
