In March, the company Del Monte announced the release of the precious honeyglow pineapple, which it calls a “personal-sized” fruit, clocking in at just 1.5 to 2 pounds, or about half the size of the average pineapple!
A rep from Del Monte says, "Our new Precious Honeyglow delivers everything that people love about Del Monte Honeyglow pineapples, such as their extra sweet taste and distinct color, in a compact single-serving size."
Apparently, this product has a distinctly sweeter taste than traditional pineapples, and is grown at specialty farms in Costa Rica, where they are left to mature and ripen naturally on the plant for a few extra days, resulting in an extra sweet taste and radiant golden hue.
And while a nice sweet treat is great, the company says it’s also offering the product as a way to reduce food waste
This also isn’t Del Monte's only unique fruit option. It also offers the pink glow, a variety of pink pineapples that are just as fun to cut into as they are to eat. But, if you’re just after that single-serve option, you can get it now, or any time of year, at Melissa's Produce!
