"The fruit is born among leaves, and the skin is yellow like jackfruit, and the liquid is sweet and sour, so it is named pineapple because there are green leaves at the tip like phoenix tail", while the mainland is named pineapple because of jackfruit. Then the people of Taiwan Province cultivated and produced a new variety of golden diamond pineapple (eyeless pineapple).
