Taiwan produces an abundance of pineapple in summer, and thanks to the agricultural improvements of recent years the fruit is sweeter, juicier, and higher in quality than ever. Fresh pineapple, which contains bromelin, can be sharp and biting to the tongue, but canned pineapple is processed to eliminate that discomfort.
本省夏季盛產鳳梨，尤其是近來農業改良，將鳳梨的品質提高不少，汁多甜份夠；不過，新鮮的鳳梨因含有蛋白分解酵素（BROMELIN）故吃多口腔和舌頭會有割刺的不適感。
