Abstract:
Pineapple is one of the popular fruits and is liked by majority of the people irrespective of
their age group. As is the case with most of the fruits and vegetables, their availability is
limited during the year. Many techniques have been developed to make available seasonal
fruits as well as vegetables even during off-season. Canned pineapple slices and juice are
such products. Pineapple is consumed as dessert, in fruit salads, while making cakes and
pastries etc. Thus there are large number of consumers who would like to consume pineapple
slices or juice.
