Here are the 5 tips that you need to know:ā£
1. the ColorāIn general, you want to look for one that is more yellow towards the base. Pineapples go from green to yellowish, getting riper, starting at the base. That said, if your pineapple is green, that doesnāt necessarily mean it isnāt ripe, just move on to the next steps.ā£

2. the FeelāThe pineapple should NOT be too soft and it also should not be rock hard. It should be firm, but have a little give. That means itās juicy.ā£
