I don’t know about you, but I absolutely LOVE fresh pineapple. My only issue, with it, has to do with how to cut it up.

It seems I’m not alone. ‘How to cut pineapple’ is one of the most popular Google searches relating to the fruit.

I’m sure that the majority of folks cut it up with their favorite kitchen knife. But, I think I’m going to take the plunge and pick up this Norpro Grip EZ Melon and Pineapple Cutter

It looks like it comes in quite handy and is even available in three nifty colors… green, yellow and tangerine.

(Ok, who else is humming the melody of ‘Green Tangerine, now? Please don’t tell me I’m the only one.)

As the name implies, this particular pineapple cutter would also work wonders for your favorite variety of melon, as well.

If you don’t want to purchase this tool, you can cut a pineapple as follows:

• Cut off the stalk
• Cut off the top & bottom (so pineapple will sit flat)
• Cut the skin off the sides, in strips
• Lay pineapple on it’s side and cut into slices
• Carefully core each slice and enjoy, enjoy, ENJOY!

Now you know how to cut a pineapple, But, don’t eat it all before you read my post on homemade pineapple ice cream.
