The staff at Pineapple’s in Melbourne were excited Wednesday evening, just hours before their boss is scheduled to launch into space.

Yes, there are now Pinkglow pineapples. The Del Monte fresh produce exclusive just came out Monday but this pretty in pink treat has been a work in progress. Del Monte started developing it back in 2005 and then it got FDA approval for human consumption in 2016. But Del Monte says the juice is worth the squeeze on your wallet. These Pinkglow pineapples are supposed to be juicier and sweeter and you get a certificate of authenticity because it’s a pink pineapple and it’s 2020.
