Did You Know About Symbolism of Pineapple

1. Treat of Kings

Back into the 1600s, the pineapple remained so uncommon. With the natural sweetness made the fruit an item of celebrity and curiosity for royal gourmet and horticulturist. Later King Charles II of England posted for an official portrait in an act then as the symbolic of royal privilege, receiving a pineapple as a gift.

1. Hospitality Symbol

With its rarity, expense, reputation, and attractiveness made it as the ultimate exotic fruit and often the pinnacle of table’s central food mound to express the sense of welcome, good cheer, human warmth and family affection from the hostess. Pineapple is still a treasured housewarming gift for friends and family.

1. Artistic Motif

It is surprising that the symbol of friendship and hospitality of pineapple became a favorite motif for artist. They sculpted pineapple into door lintels; stenciled on walls and canvas mats; wove into table cloths; or painted onto the back of chairs.

1. Healthy Fruit

Pineapple is generally helpful for any condition involving inflammation. This fruit is a source of bromelain, a protein-dissolving enzyme. Bromelain breaks up the fibers that hold areas of inflammation in place and, to describe matters in everyday terms, turns sticky snot into runny snot. Although over-the-counter formulations of bromelain are refined from pineapple stems, the enzyme is also found in the fruit and juice.
