So, if the Spongebob cartoon could be made 200 or 250 years ago, that sponge would be the richest chracter on the show behind King Neptune.
Monopoly: Bikini Bottom Edition (which I'm certain already exists, lol)
@@d.c.8828 yes, it exists.
Third richest actually, behind Eugene jeans and king neptune
He secretly is, it's how he owns a house and supported himself and buys crazy thing while still getting paid nothing by Mr Krabs whom he only works for because he likes it.
Spongebob being a homeowner, he's probably among the wealthy now. I imagine filter feeding really cuts down on the groceries budget

Ananas? Only in Brazil, in most Latin American countries and Spain , is called "piña" .
@@pedrorubenrapraydiego2207 What do you mean "only in Brazil?" "Ananas" is not Brazilian Portuguese. "Abacaxi" is the Brazilian word. Also, I'm not gonna list "piña," I've already got "pineapple."

@@pedrorubenrapraydiego2207 é abacaxi ô cabeção
A few years ago, I came across a "wild" Pineapple, the Ananá, for the first time. Here in Southern Brazil, we still can find them, specially in the woodlands who mixed Mata Atlântica (Atlantic Rainforest) and the Pampas. This rather small and bitter fruit is kinda tasty tho, and it is amazing to realize how conected the Americas were hundreds of generations before the sixteenth century
Yes, and the nature is a testament to that. When i went to the Amazon rainforest in Peru i was surprised to see alot of the same wild tropical plant species and trees that you would see in my home country Dominican Republic, on an island in the middle of the caribbean thousands of miles away. The indigenous people of the americas were well connected and communicated.
Cool

I can’t live with myself for what I have done
Weird Explorer is also some quality fruit content
In Venezuela there's a saying that goes: "More annoying than carrying a pineapple under your arm" (In Spanish: "mas fastidioso que una piña debajo del brazo"). I think it originated a long time ago from people carrying a pineapple around in parties and social events.
I doubt they carried pineapples around social events in Venezuela.
In Brazil our saying is about problems/trouble: "I'm gonna have to peel that pineapple".
Pineapples are all over the place in Charleston, SC on the historic homes. I never knew all this about them. People said there they were a symbol of hospitality because back in the day if someone was having a party they would put a pineapple out. They never went in to detail about why that was, thank you. Very interesting.
They have long been considered a symbol of hospitality.
@Mialisus Go figure. People are weird animals.
Can confirm, I'm from sc too, my mother has a pineapple flag on her front walkway
@@leonardoalvarenga7572 sorry about that. I should have specified USA
In the 17th and 18th century pineapples were a popular motif for furniture, home decoration etc. They symbolized wealth and hospitality, basically invite the neighbors over and show them what a big shot you are with carved pineapples on all your dining room furniture.
I’m going to strut around town pulling a wagon of pineapples so the peasants can bask in my magnificent display of wealth. That’s what I’d tell myself anyway but in actuality I am a peasant myself and if I’m pulling a wagon of pineapples, I’m peddling them for pocket money .
With a little more inflation this comment will be applicable to 100 dollar bills too.
@@Seanonyoutube I’d rather have the wagon load of pineapples. I can actually eat those AND they’re both delicious & nutritious. I’ve never attempted to eat any denomination of US currency but will go out on a limb here & make the bold assertion that all of them, even those portraying Benji Franks, taste like ass & provide no nutritional benefits whatsoever.

There is an historical account of Portuguese explorers on their discovery of rio de janeiro. They were received friendly by local tribes and among the gift they received some pinneaples."a fruit that resembled a pine cone but with a yellow interior sweeter that anything i have tasted in my life"
i imagine the kind of person who would've rented a pineapple back in the day would be the kind of person who would wait in line to rent the latest overpriced iphone today...
There was nothing remotely approaching pineapples in Europe. No other fruit was so large, so sweet, so fragrant and juicy, and the color of gold. Plus you can cut off the top and grow another pineapple from that. This video doesn't fully portray WHY pineapples were treasure, or why nothing in our modern lives compare to them.

I accidentally grew a pineapple once. I tossed the top of one into a planter by accident and forgot about it. It rooted and after 2 years I had a pineapple develop. It didn't get as big as the ones in the stores but still was so cool.
How do you toss a plant into a planter by accident
@@agirlisnoone5953 - the top of the pineapple is what he tossed. The green leaves at the top of the fruit can take root when cut off and given the proper conditions (kept wet enough for the green leaves to remain alive).
@@stevebabiak6997 right, i know what part op tossed and i know how they can be grown. However, to accidentally do this seems odd. To have a planter big enough and near food prep area, and to sloppily toss it into the planter perfectly bottom side down and to continue watering whatever is in the planter without seeing the pineapple top, well.... Thats a really interesting accident.
After planting a few (thousand) pineapples,
when I lived in Hawaii, the first time, I know
the procedure. At least, in a humid tropical
climate.
When we picked the amazing fruit, we removed
the crown. Numerous processes were involved,
most of them bruised the berries. The fruit and
the crown went down the same conveyor, and
were separated with a blast of air. Fruit went
to be processed, crowns were re-planted.
A back breaking process, which I'd like to forget!
(I was MUCH younger then.)

For months, she had noticed this strange plant growing on the spot where she last saw her daughter. This time, the leaves of the plant fully opened. Inside, she saw this strange yellow fruit
*that resembled a child’s head with a thousand eyes.*

pineAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAApples!!!!!!! :D
When they open, its a red flower..
I like inca because without them there won't be pineapples
In Costa Rica they're actually a big problem since it's replacing natural ecosystems with big green deserts, plus huge agrochemical pollution and barely legal labour conditions
Monoculture sucks! 🤓🍻
In the Philippines, fibers are extracted from pineapple leaves, and it is used to make the Barong Tagalog.
Oh yeah, that. Everyone has one of those...
You know you're a nerd when you see a title like "The Bizzare History of Pineapples" and you think "Holy crap, I HAVE GOT to see this!"
An interesting fact about the cultivation in England was that even being in a greenhouse wasn't enough to reliably produce the fruit, it had to be kept much hotter than the sun could maintain it, especially in winter, so a special greenhouse was constructed which had massive decaying piles of manure in the walls to give off the necessary heat. A short pineapple pit could produce maybe a dozen fruit but required 15 tons of manure, which had to be kept topped up year round.
Yes, I read about that interesting form of heating a pineapple greenhouse first in the book about the restoration of the Gardens of Heligan. The original possessors, the Tremayne family also had quite a fondness for the fruit.
After finally getting a healthy plant established I look forward to the single fruit it can produce each year, a properly ripened fresh pineapple has so much more intense and sweet flavor than anything I can find in the supermarket.
the latest nation to be analyzed by fire of learning, the pineapple
I purchased a pineapple for

Useful knowledge..
Only fingerprints? On one episode of BONES TV, a shipping box of pineapples was used to deflesh a skeleton when the forensic team was working away from the lab.
The pineapple I believe what’s originally a weapon of mass destruction due to its spiny exterior and hard shell, but god realized that man was not ready to handle such terrible power, and made it a tasty treat for munching upon.

Biggest flex to medieval europeans is to just throw away nutmeg and a few pineapples
Medieval Europe didn't know what pineapples are, they were discovered in the age of discovery (aka begging of modern age)
The only thing I want to ask, is who thought pineapples grew on trees? are people out there drawing pineapples on trees out there or something?

This video made me go to the store and buy a pineapple and now I'm watching it again while eating it. I'm such royalty
My great grandmother has the the best story of the first time she eat a pineapple. It's was in 1917 when's her mother took the family on a steam ship to immigrate to Australia from Finland. She was 9 at the time. When they got to a tropical land on the journey. Local boats came up to the steam boat to sell there good and one of the boats had whole pineapple for sale my grandmother begged her mother for the money to buy one because everyone on the ship was getting them. My great great grandmother said 'Pineapples are some to look at not eat' buy my great grandmother persist and brought one. The children sat down and eat it. And after being told by their mother 'You begged for you eat it' they all decide they hated pineapple. They hurt you month. It wasn't until they got to Australia and meet up with their father who by now worked on a pineapple farm. Told them you have to peel the pineapple. You can't eat the skin. I didn't know my great grandmother she passed away when I was 3. But everytime I see a pineapple I aways think of her.
Wow that's a cool story.
Awesome!
Pineapples are actually the only known food we eat that actively digests us.
That is why after eating pineapple many people get sore gums and swollen lips.
It is the pineapple 'eating' the flesh layer off of the inside of your mouth.
Is that bad or good for our health?
@@Seanonyoutube as long as you dont eat too much pineapple it doesnt really matter.
@@jepso3815 I eat about one small one every week. Is that a lot or a little?
@@Seanonyoutube as long as you don't experience the pain in your mouth (from too much pineapple) you're completely fine
@@jepso3815 the one we have is called sugarloaf and is much less acidic.
In spanish both piña (that also means pinecone) and Ananá is used. Some countries uses piña and others use Ananá.
The pineapple is also a very popular motif in vintage knitting and crochet. You've probably seen a crocheted pineapple doily before if you've ever gone to an antique store... Or your grandma's house. I think the idea was that if you couldn't afford one, you could make one!
In most languages it's called "ananas". The English called it "pineapple" because of its resemblance to a pine cone and at the time "apple" was a word used to refer to various kinds of fruits.
And now I can buy one for a dollar. It is amazing the things we take for granted in the modern world.
I think about that every time I flush my toilet. Do I "do" the laundry? No. A machine does it. My grandmother told me that to do the laundry once meant building four fires in the yard, then boiling four cast iron cauldrons of water. If some ashes blew into your rinse water ( #4 cauldron), you had to begin all over again... 😳

The pineapple was imported to hawai and killed off almost all of its native fruits
Just the like the u.s. imperial war machine

Each time i see a Person peeling or cutting a pineaple badly i cringe hahaha fortunately i can consume it fresh and in all seasons, a little perk for being southamerican.
Long live to pineaple/ananá!
Where I live we have a version with an edible core so you can just cut right through it and eat it all.
The wild ananas bushes in my backyard should have been a clue that pineapples are native to southern Brazil. Oh well. They don't taste anything like a pineapple though.
the british gardeners started to build speciific types of green houses to match the needs of pineapples. it could have been great content for this video. the quality of glass windows and a tricky way of heating, plus the consideration of seasonal light types were all part of those early experiments on growing the fruit. regards
Yes the British were leaders in so many ways.
A big conservatory attached Blenheim Palace, is called The Orangery. Citrus was another status symbol, later...
I remember flying into a central American country and the airport was surrounded by pineapples. Rows and rows of pineapples passing by as we're landing.

You can have some fun in Hawaii by asking tourist if they'd like to pose in front of a "pineapple tree". There's a tree there that produces a fruit that resembles a pineapple. It's the pandanus tree, and the locals call it the "tourist pineapple". [pandanus tectorius]

Im from Uruguay, Colder country to brazil only imported Pinneaples and quite expensive, really not an everyday fruit. A couple years ago i moved to Rio de Janeiro where is a way more common fruit. The first day i moved to my apartment i went to the market to put some things on my empty fridge, i discovered pinneaples at about 1/5 of the price i was used to pay in my native country so naturally i came back to my apartment with 5 pineapples, i filled half of my fridge (single guy fridge so not too big to begin with) with Pineapples. I went for a walk and when i came back open the fridge and tought "What the hell was i thinking?"🤣
oh man this is really making me want to crack a can of Dole pineapples
Fantastic micro documentary. Love this stuff

Pineapple has always been my favorite fruit. Here in my home town, there is a Colonial Palace, where the pineapple is depicted on the art and carvings many times. Several coins and jewelry of the period also depicte the pineapple prominently.
I always thought the pineapple was from Hawaii, it seems so tropical.
*american moment* don't lie. You thought it was hawaiian because of the hawaii pizza.
@@POLITICUS-DANICUS yeah, maybe that's what I was thinking about subconsciously. I forgot Hawaiian pizza existed, haven't had pizza in decades.
Well, it's actually native to a tropical place between the borders of Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay
For you only Polynesia is tropical? Because pineapple is tropical, is native to south america and been used in caribbean for centuries before spanish invation.
There's a process of getting fruit ready to eat called "bletting." Basically, it means ever so slightly rotten. Pineapple very much benefits from a white mold on the skin. This probably explains why the ones that did make it to Europe or North America made a big impression of sweetness.
This is the quality content I subbed for.

Great channel, great information!
Nice video my guy, I been wondering where have you been ngl, very interesting story 🤔
Finally, an answer to the question "what would you bring with you if you were time travelling to the past."
Cool!
I do know you haven't tasted a piece of heaven until you've eaten a pineapple ripened on the plant. Everyone should take the time to grow at least one in their lifetime. They really aren't that difficult to grow. They don't require very much food or water. Can handle quite a bit of surprisingly cold weather but best brought indoors if in a cold climate.
Every single one that I have ever grown always fluoresced (blooms) on Christmas day the second year after starting the plant. How the plant figures that out, I have not a clue but they certainly do. The fruit blessed by Jesus Christ himself. :)
i very much enjoyed this video, it was a lovely snack on my day off, thank you very much ^^
My grandmother loved Pineapple decor and had a door knocker on her door that was a Pineapple. I was told it meant hospitality.
The story my family told was that pineapple slices were present on the dinner table for the guests to use to clean their fingers. Other comments remark on the strong solvent in pineapples.
