How Do You Know If A Pineapple Has Gone Bad?
If a pineapple has gone bad, you can tell by its appearance and smell. The skin may start to appear dark and discolored, and the top of the fruit might have mold growing on it. When you cut it open, it may have a strong, unpleasant odor and be mushy or slimy to the touch. If you notice any of these signs, it’s best to dispose of the pineapple and not consume it.
