Del Monte Pink Glow Pineapple!
Where are the pineapples grown?
Pinkglow® pineapples grow on a select farm in the South-Central region of Costa Rica, which has the ideal soil and climate for growing pineapples.
Can I get a pink pineapple anywhere else?
Fresh Del Monte is the only company to grow this unique pink pineapple variety.
What does it taste like? Does it taste different to a regular pineapple?
Pinkglow® also has a delicious and unique taste, with notes of candy pineapple aromatics. It is also less sour than a traditional pineapple, juicier and sweeter in taste.
How are they grown and/or harvested?
Pinkglow® pineapples are grown by planting existing pineapple crowns in the ground, allowing new pineapples to grow.
Why does the pineapple not have a crown?
Pinkglow® pineapples are harvested by hand. In order to regenerate new pineapple crops, the crown needs to be planted.
How are these pineapples pink?
Pinkglow® pineapples contain lycopene, a natural pigment that gives some produce its red color (e.g. tomatoes, watermelon), which makes this product pink.
