Locally Grown Pineapples in La Fortuna

While driving around La Fortuna and the surrounding areas, we see vendors on the street selling various fruits grown in the area.  We bought pineapples at this one.  4 pineapples / 1000 colones is about $0.41 each.  Great price and they taste delicious -- a little sweeter and less acidic than the ones we had in the United States.

We also have a plantain farm a few houses away from our house.  They cover the plantains with blue bags to help them ripen more quickly.
