I remember I assumed they grew on a tree, (hence the name) so the first time I saw pineapples growing for real I was like "fuck off that's not real."

Yeah the name "pineapple" is an extremely lazy-ass name based on the fact that it's shaped like a giant pine cone

See I'm only just now noticing that because you told me. Hadn't made the connection before.

In most non-Asian languages pineapple is called Ananas (italian, german, finnish, portuguese, Turkish, greek, russian...)

Yeah and English speakers actually adopted the Native name "ananas" at first too but then "pineapple" took over for some reason

It's not only in English, in Spanish you have both the words ananas and piña (pine), like the drink "piña colada" (strained pineapple)
