When it comes to fresh pineapples, there’s a gold standard. In 1996, Fresh Del Monte introduced The Del Monte Gold Extra Sweet pineapple, a then-new variety that’s twice as sweet as the traditional pineapple featuring beautiful, golden flesh. Del Monte Gold Extra Sweet pineapple is hand-harvested at peak sweetness and ripeness. Other ways to enjoy fresh Del Monte pineapples include desserts, salads, smoothies, or as a tropical garnish for meats and poultry. And let’s not forget how amazing they are on the rim of a frozen umbrella drink for those chilled Sundays with friends!
