Both of those are sweet and fruit...?

They are sour. Or tart, in case of pineapples.

You are buying shitty pineapple. To select a good pineapple:

Tug at the center most leaf on top of the fruit, it should give easily. It should smell like pineapple. The skin should be golden colored to slight green (sl underripe) or a very slight touch brown (overripe). The bottom should be dry. The very green ones that you can get for $2-3 never ripen properly as they were picked too early.

As much as I love pineapple my username combines my love of The Mothman, the Mandelorean, And Back to the Future.

I am passionate about fruits and veggies and enjoy helping people discover how to pick good ones.

You tartness and sweetness are two orthogonal axes. A fruit can be both quite tart and quite sweet, like some varieties of pineapple and cherry.

I want to try the pineapples you're getting. Ours are sweet, but that's about it.
