50 People Try to Cut Pineapple Rings

Okay, so, ooo, hi, hello, okay.

Alright.

Erm.

Erm.

Rings?

Like wring it's neck?

I'm gonna try.

I think I can figure it out.

How do you get the top off it?

Erm. (laughs)

Okay.

Wow.

I feel like you have to get this part off.

Maybe you can peel it?

This won't work would it?

It worked a little bit.

I don't know how to get the center out.

Wait a minute, this is cute.

Oh my God.

Oh, I see. What?

Oh my gosh.

What is happening?

This is terrifying.

Now what?

I'm just gonna cut it up.

I'm not gonna cut any more for the sake of my hand.

This is gonna be like a hexagon.

So I'm just gonna tear this off.

Oh no, wow, the structural integrity of the pineapple

is falling apart.

Oh (bleep) me.

Okay, we're gonna cut this pineapple into rings.

First.

Cut off the top.

Then I'm gonna cut off the bottom.

Cut down the sides to take the skin off.

'Cause probably nobody wants to eat that.

Go down the middle and get rid of the core.

Just stick this down in the center.

And now I'm cutting it into the rings.

Got it done.

That's how it's done.

Half a ring, whoops, okay.

Okay, so we're gonna ring a pineapple, the first thing

you wanna do when you're getting a pineapple is just

take the top and the bottom off of the pineapple,

so that things aren't rolling away

from us when we try and cut.

In order to peel a pineapple,

we wanna stand it up and work our way down the sides.

Your goal is to get rid of the eyes,

which are the dots right here,

without losing too much flesh, okay,

so you wanna get in about a half an inch inward

working our way down.

That looks pretty good, I'm happy with that.

I'm gonna roll this guy on its side,

and I'm gonna just start cutting this into disks.

On this half what I'm gonna do is take the pineapple

and cut it into rings by hand,

and then I'm just taking the tip of my paring knife,

rotating my way around the core of the pineapple.

The goal here is just to get the core out of the center.

If you're using a pineapple coring tool,

which is this guy right here,

you can really just go straight into the top,

twist the tool, and take the core out this way.

This is a fine method, but I find that you get a

substantial amount of waste this way,

and that's because the corer works its way down the center

of the pineapple regardless of the size of your pineapple.

You end up losing this sort of

outside edge of the pineapple.

That being said, it certainly works,

and we're going to get rings out of it.

I did it.

They're ring like.

Right, right.

Wow, my delicious piece of pineapple.

(laughs) Do I like pineapple?

No, but most people tell me it's delicious,

so I believe them.
