I was at the grocery store recently and happened to purchase a pineapple.
At the checkout line, the girl at the register asks “Is it really cheaper to buy a whole pineapple instead of the one’s that are already cut up?”
For reference, sliced whole pineapple (in a nice little plastic tub) was $7.00 at this store; a whole pineapple (free range version) was on sale for $2.98.
I told her yes, it was a lot cheaper.
“Is it hard to cut up?”
She was being serious, so I explained how to cut up a pineapple. I guess I could have just said google it but that didn’t seem like a very nice way to reply. I also resisted any reference to Sponge Bob.
Whenever my family sees a pineapple, the first thing we say is, “don’t forget, you’re shoving a pineapple up Hitler’s ass at 4.” or “you’re shnerious?” And THEN we sing the Sponge Bob song.
That. Is. Awesome.
