Today we were looking at more produce from poorer nations that rely on the Fairtrade system to make a decent living. In recent weeks we have used our senses to investigate the taste, smell and Qualitys Each week we spend time describing what we see, feel, smell and hear in our own words. (And so if the fruit looks like Marge) This week it was the turn of the Paraguayan Pineapple to face the wrath of our panel. Fairtrade produce fresh from the local Scotmid ( we don’t need to go to Paraguay to buy them). We looked, we smelled, we touched - we thought he was jaggy! We considered that… it was waxy and shiny like a pumpkin or squash it had a thick skin we would not eat -unlike an apple it had spikey bits on top like Marge Simpson’s hair with too much gel! it was very heavy (dense) it had signs of a stalk or stem it’s leaves pointed up to the sun the plant stem must be strong as the fruit is heavy there is yellow flesh inside the skin there is no core like an apple but there is a hard bit through the middle we probably wouldn’t eat (after all the pineapple in tins comes in rings with no middle bit…) the smell was making our mouths water! there was a lot of juice from this fruit the fruit tasted just wonderful!
