Tough to keep it healthy in the Oregon winter and inside, but here is a Pineapple Plant I started. I rooted a starter and transplanted it into this so It's going into it's 2nd summer right now.

Yeah. I wonder how many Britts woof this down and not realize the "consequences" of their actions:



PS, Mel Brooks provided "social commentary" on this scene in subsequent DVD/Blu-Ray releases. I guess it was his satirical statement on the matter. He stated:



It is said that Brooks made them turn up the volume when filming the scene and leave it up so that the farts wouldn't be drowned out by the audience laughing at it. I can testify to this. My father took me to see the movie in a theater on Martha's Vineyard right after its release. Everyone (including Dad) just lost it and laughed like crazy. So much so, that whenever the movie plays on TV late night (in the NY/NJ market), he still chuckles pretty hard during that scene,. In the Chicago market, they dubbed in Horses neighing...... Ugggggghhh. :mad:

I used to live about a 1000 yards from where that movie was filmed. (Rosamond, CA) Took me a few years to realize it. Something about the mountains. One night after cooking some steaks on the grill, I wanted to watch something funny with my meal and loaded my Blazing Saddles DVD. At the opening scene when they were laying track, it clicked. That's right here! Got some pictures from out there I have to dig up and scan (for later) Also found a railroad spike out there one day that I have.
If anybody wants to google earth the location. Rosamond, CA to the end of 35th Street West . It's been over forty years but, you'll recognize the terrain.

Very early next spring, throw a few apple peels into the center to encourage blossoming (the pineapple). The fruit take a long time to mature. Don’t pick/cut until it starts to get yellow on the fruit. Then, depending upon how many critters are in your area, either pick it and let it ripen in a sunny window or leave it on the plant until you can smell it up close.

Either way, let it set and ripen on the counter until it’s dark yellow. Twist the top off and set it to dry for replanting and cut it up. Yum. Sweetest pineapple you’ll ever eat.

Then slice it up and put it on a pizza.
