    Hi Katie, Thanks for the video. I love pineapple, but in the past I found them more trouble then they are worth. I watched several "how-to peel" videos, and learned nothing new. Watching your under 3 minute video, I learned two extremely helpful tips: cut behind the eyes, and how to core the fruit and keep the rings. Thanks again
