the pineapple express.

I was recently asked to discuss the underrated nature of the pineapple as a fruit. Upon my quite diligent research, I did learn some lovely things exclusive to the pineapple:

1. it can be either eaten or applied topically as an anti-inflammatory and as a proteolytic agent
2. some claim that it helps to induce childbirth when a baby is overdue
3. the natural (or most common) pollinator of the pineapple is the hummingbird: and if you know me, you know I love me a hummingbird.

but c'mon: can you really put on an apple or orange helmet to scare the fuck out of your friends and family? I hear a resounding no. No you cannot.

so thank you pineapple.
