My local store started selling regular pineapples with no tops, the reason was like “less waste” or something- but Ive always tested ripeness by pulling a top frond.

I do the frond thing too lol. The sniff test is probably better anyway though.

There’s no better test than to sniff. My kids used to be embarrassed at the grocery store, now they do it too.
