Description/Taste
Red pineapples are generally smaller than common commercial pineapples and grow on a thick stem that is nestled among curved, elongated, and pointed leaves. The oblong to cylindrical fruit has a waxy, fibrous skin that is covered in downward-facing, red-pink spines, and the fruit connects to a leafy and spiked, variegated green-red crown. Underneath the tough skin, the flesh contains hues of white, yellow, and pink, and is dense and somewhat chewy, encasing a hard, central core. Depending on the climate the fruit is grown in, the flesh can be juicy with a sweet and slightly tangy taste and may or may not contain seeds.
Seasons/Availability
Red pineapples are available in the summer through fall in tropical climates.
Current Facts
Red pineapples, botanically classified as Ananas bracteatus, are brightly colored fruits that grow on evergreen plants and are members of the Bromeliaceae or bromeliad family. Native to tropical and subtropical regions of South America, Red pineapples have been introduced around the world as an ornamental plant, highly valued for their showy red fruits and multi-colored leaves. There are several varieties of Red pineapples, and the small fruits are rare to find in commercial markets. Red pineapples are typically found in home gardens and are often used as a natural defense along property lines to protect against unwelcomed animals and people. Though the plants are mainly considered to be ornamental, in tropical climates with a high amount of rainfall, Red pineapples are edible and are consumed fresh or juiced.
Nutritional Value
Red pineapples are an excellent source of vitamin C, which is an antioxidant that can help boost the immune system and contain bromelain, which is an enzyme that has anti-inflammatory properties. The pineapple also contains fiber and manganese, which has been shown to help protect bone composition.
Applications
Red pineapples are edible but will vary in texture and flavor depending on the climate and amount of water the plant has received during the growing process. The fruit can be consumed fresh, out-of-hand by removing the skin, crown, and bottom to expose the flesh. The flesh can then be cut away from the core and diced into pieces. Red pineapples can also be used in fruit salads alongside mangoes, bananas, and citrus, added to smoothies, and pureed or juiced for use in sauces, marinades, and cocktails. In addition to fresh applications, Red pineapple slices can be dried for extended use. Red pineapples pair well with roasted meats such as ham and chicken, creamy cheeses such as blue cheese or cream cheese, black garlic, fennel, and basil. The fruit will keep up to five days when stored whole and upside-down to allow sugars to redistribute from base to crown in the refrigerator. Sliced pieces of fruit will keep 1-3 days when stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
Ethnic/Cultural Info
In Indonesia, Red pineapples have become a modern symbol for prosperity and protection during the Chinese New Year and are favored for combining two ancient traditions into one decoration. Also known as Imlek or the Lunar New Year, the Chinese New Year is celebrated by millions of Chinese Indonesians, and pineapples are regarded as lucky because their Chinese name sounds similar to the Chinese words for ?fortune or prosperity? in certain dialects. Pineapple decorations are adorned in houses and restaurants, and both the real fruit is used along with constructed pineapple lanterns made from paper. Pineapple tarts are also a favored treat during the celebration and are made with a sweet jam delicately placed on top of a baked pastry. In addition to pineapples, the color red is believed to ward off evil during festivities and is displayed through clothing, decorations, and food.
Geography/History
Red pineapples are native to South America and have been found growing in cloud forests, along coastlines, in highlands, and in tropical forests in Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay, and Argentina since ancient times. The brightly colored fruit has also been introduced via trade to other tropical and subtropical regions around the world, including Southeast Asia, Australia, New Zealand, and Hawaii. Today Red pineapples are not commercially grown on a large scale and are predominately found as a specialty, ornamental variety in home gardens.

A great book by a great journalist
Format: Hardcover
The China Matrix is another great book by the great journalist Lee Smith. The book is written in a very easy to read format. I have learned so many things that I didn't know before, and I simply can't put it down. Lee opened my eyes about the way Washington D.C. works, and I really miss his Epoch TV show, Over the Target. I wish more shows invited him on because he has a great insight when it comes to domestic and international affairs. To whoever wants to learn more about the way the Chinese Community Party works, I recommend to get this book and read it.

Misses some important context, but a solid book
Format: Audiobook
I can't give it the 3.5 stars it deserves. Smith is an outstanding writer and has long view China as an adversary that we intentionally do not pay attention to given the elites make large amounts of money working with the CCP. In this book he demonstrates that happened from the get go, starting with Kissinger. Rarely, if ever, were American interests ever viewed as the lens with which to see China, only as a way to make money for power brokers and businesses alike. He points to Trumps long standing opposition to the way the international trade system evolved and the way it harmed middle class Americans.
All of this is outstanding, but the book loses many points trying to cover for terrible protectionist economic policies. We certainly may have gone too far in hollowing out the industrial base, but 100% of Americans benefitted from lower price and more selections. It is not the purpose of the book, but a look at overall US business policy has been to harm Amercians, one need look no further than mass immigration, legal and illegal that drive down wages at the lower/middle end. Nor does the book bother with looking at general business mindless following each other for yet another new fad, from six sigma to who moved my cheese. Again, not what the book is about, but he tries to make the claim that all of this is China and elite policy driving toward this outcome when that data is not supported.
Overall, it is a better than worse book that one should read if for no other reason than to see how far we have actually bent over for China for gains that are mostly illusory for business access. That China still uses the elites to gain access not just to markets but US citizen minds is the real problem. Smith does a good job pointing that out

Yet, so many US consumers take a knee to Chinese imports.
Format: Kindle
My first response to Lee Smith's "The Chinese Matrix" is anger with the CCP. But, they did what treasonous US politicians and investors permitted in exchange for wealth and power. The current situation reminds me of the Chinese finger trap - a small tube of woven reeds just large enough to insert a finger into each end. When naturally trying to withdraw the fingers from opposite ends, the woven reeds constricted. Escape was contrary to natural instinct. Likewise, to extract our country from the Chinese Matrix will require unnatural sacrifice.

Comprehensive and bold analysis of US foreign policy with China.
Format: Kindle
Lee Smith takes the reader through the many years of China appeasement from Kissenger and Nixon to the present where China continues to suck the power of the US toward its goal of global domination.
