Pineapple as a status symbol

messaggio da Kieran - Exploring Scotland

"The Pineapple House" tells the fascinating story of how pineapples became a symbol of wealth and status in Britain for over 250 years. From being paraded at lavish social gatherings to being rented out for special events, these exotic fruits were once worth a fortune. However, as importation became more common and prices dropped, the pineapple's elite status faded. Despite this, remnants of this quirky obsession can still be found today, like at the Lost Gardens of Heligan where they continue to grow these tropical treats. Who knew a fruit could have such a juicy history?
