Welcome Pineapple

Why is the pineapple a sign of welcome?

Its on signs to many towns and on door mats and pictures on peoples walls. I even see ornaments of pineapples set up in foyers of homes. Maybe its a southern thing though. Anyone know how this fruit came to be a sign of welcome?

It’s a characteristic fruit that is served also as a welcome sign
in certain 5 stars hotels in tropical countries.It is brought
into your room as soon as you checked in and it comes with
other local fruits.It makes a nice bunch in a handcrafted basket
and a little card expressing “welcome” and “thank you”.

It’s also a typical exotic,delicious fruit that can be
squeezed into juice.In Europe we called it ananas.
In countries like Malaysia and Thailand,a pineapple
is also used in making desserts.
It’s simply a beautiful fruit and it makes beautiful posters,
of course…those funny strands.
