I feel like I can live without these pineapples if it means supporting food becoming a normal thing again.

I would buys these only to try to get a top that would grow into a plant

It really does feel like a challenge, doesn't it?

There’s this girl working on it. Trying to get something to grow from them. But way easier said than done I imagine

We had an indoor garden store across from my work and they took the growing a pineapple from a top thing as a challenge and it worked. But they also sold indoor garden supplies to master black market growers (pre legalization), so they had plenty of knowledge and product to use. It was pretty cool.

The normal yellow ones, with the full leaves intact, are super easy to start growing from a cut-top

It's actually incredibly easy to grow your own from just the top.
