Pineapple is a plant native to South America. Its large infructescence covered with a hard shell is a popular delicacy that is widely used in various cuisines. Pineapples grow in Brazil in the wild, while their plantations are also found in the Philippines, China and Mexico. Greenhouses in which pineapples were grown were built in Europe in the 18th century. Pineapple contains a lot of fiber, bromeline, vitamins and potassium, as well as magnesium and calcium, which is why it is recommended to be eaten by sportsmen and slimming people.
