I personally like the core. It tastes just as good as the rest. I like the texture. And for those who say unless you need the fiber. Pineapples are a natural laxative so whether you eat the core or the outer edges you are bound to have a very good release.

No do not eat the core unless your really in need of fiber. Lay the pineapple on it's side cut the top off, slice it like a loaf of bread, take each slice and cut the core out and discard. Now slice one side and open like a dough nut and chomp away. Eat pineapples as soon as you buy them, the will not get any more ripe as they are matured when picked in the field. Spent 3 weeks in Hawaii and went on a tour of Dole pineapple.

You just eat the outer edges, the core is too hard and fibrous to digest and will not be good to eat. The easiest way to decore it is to cut it down from top to bottom in fourths and then take the triangular wedge of core out of the length of it.

the core of a pineapple isn't bad for you, it just has an unpleasant taste however, things that help conception are bad for already pregnant people then again pineapple cores helping you to conceive is probably just a myth anyway, i wouldn't eat anymore pineapple cores

you can eat the core but its a little tough.....
i use an old baby food tin to get rid of the core once i've cut the pineapple into slices...
and then i throw the cores out...
but i do leave the core in when i am frying the pineapple.....

Most people only eat around the core because they don't like the fibrous, tough texture of the inside; however, it's totally safe and quite good for you.
