| Positive | JeffAW | On Oct 14, 2009, JeffAW from Mcminnville, OR wrote: In neighborhood taste tests between Pineapple and other varieties of tomatoes, including the perennial favorite "Brandywine", Pineapple won hands down time and again. It had a sweet taste with a strong hint of citrus, and I agree with CMoxon that there was little actual pineapple flavor. Several people liked the fruit for the color and taste it brought to salsa, but another said that to eat Pineapple any other way than like a fresh ripe peach is a waste. Pineapple has a permanent place in my garden now. | | Positive | dancingbear27 | On Apr 23, 2008, dancingbear27 from Elba, NY (Zone 6a) wrote: I grow this tomato every year. It is very large, one slice covers a sandwich just perfect with a little overlap. It is beautiful when you cut is open with the golden yellow and vibrant red stripes. It has a nice mild, non-ascetic tomato flavor. Good sweet tomato flavor without the heartburn! | | Positive | Suze_ | On Mar 21, 2007, Suze_ from Bastrop County, TX (Zone 8b) wrote: Fairly good tasting -- for a bicolor. On the mild side to my tastebuds, and I usually prefer a stronger flavored tomato. Very attractive coloration.
This variety is commonly confused with 'Hawaiian Pineapple', which is NOT a bicolor and has its own separate entry in PlantFiles. | | Positive | CMoxon | On Aug 8, 2006, CMoxon from Urbandale, IA (Zone 5a) wrote: This was a great tomato for me and I will grow it again. The fruits were large, at least 12 oz, some over a pound, and very pretty colour. The taste was a fruity blend of sweetness but balanced with a zesty tang. I did not find they were particularly reminiscent of pineapple - I sort of expected them to be sweeter than they were. In any case, great taste, and very meaty. Yum! | | Positive | jimdaz | On Jul 13, 2006, jimdaz from Phoenix, AZ wrote: My Pineapple Tomato has done great this summer. Seems to relish the heat in Phoenix, even though it doesn't set fruit right now. Had some impressive tomatos in the Spring, and looking forward to a Fall crop. | | Positive | passiflora_pink | On Jun 7, 2006, passiflora_pink from Indian Springs, AL (Zone 7b) wrote: I grew it two consecutive years. Impressive color, inside and out. Flavor is good. |
