The juices from the bottom go through out the pineapple.

I live in Chicago and bought a Jewel Osco Dole Pineapple (on sale for $2.00) and used a Dole $.75 off coupon. Yeah for cheap pineapple. Now I feel better equipped to choose a good one!

Also - I love to eat the core!!! It's not as tangy, and has TONS of fiber.
