A pineapple sucker will produce fruits after only two years!!
The fruit is consumed fresh, cooked, juiced and preserved.
It is neither a pine nor an apple.

As a fruit it is highly valued in Sarawak.
All the different races of people of Sarawak enjoy cooked pineapples too in many different kinds of dishes.
Fresh pineapples can range from very sweet to sour and there are several species of the fruit in Sarawak. There is nenas paun, as well as Sarikei pineapples (show in the photo), Bario pineapples and honey pineapples and others.
In the olden days, it really depended on family upbringing who would get ready fruits like pineapples, coconuts, mangoes, apples for the family. In my family, it was always my father who would lovingly prepare the fruits. He was good with his well sharpened knife and I would always remember how he pared apples for grandfather who was admitted at the Lau King Howe Hospital. He was really quite impressive!!
Even in those days as a very young girl I wished that all men should be able to pare apples, clean pineapples, cut papayas, watermelons for their families.
