Pork tenderloin with kale salad and cinnamon pineapple

When European explorers came across the pineapple in South America in the 17th century, they called it a pineapple because of its pinecone appearance. The scaly bumps on the outside are called “eyes.” For centuries, pineapples were so rare that only very wealthy people could afford them. Some people even rented them to display at dinner parties. The vitamins and minerals in pineapple could help shorten viral and bacterial infections and strengthen your bones.
