Did you know that in the 18th century, pineapples were a symbol of wealth and status in Europe? Due to their rarity and high import costs, these exotic fruits were so coveted that they were often rented out for display at parties rather than eaten! Guests would admire the pineapple as an exotic centerpiece, and hosts could flaunt their affluence without taking a single bite. 🍍💼

wow, that's wild! never thought a pineapple could be the ultimate flex 😂🍍 imagine renting fruit just to show off! times have changed, huh?
