Science: Behold, The $400 Red Pineapple 🍍

What's red on the outside, yellow on the inside, and a $395.99 way to garnish your margarita?

The Rubyglow Pineapple, which Fresh Del Monte describes as "an ultra-premium luxury 'designer' fruit that appeals to high-end consumers."

Why It Matters: Agriculture scientists and produce companies are constantly trying to innovate, to improve their plants and tantalize the public.

Fun new fruits have lately included a thornless blackberry (developed in Arkanasas), a "Yellow Submarine" tomato that's yellow and shaped like a peanut (born at Cornell University), and the Luna avocado (out of the University of California, Riverside).

The "SweetArk" thornless blackberry was developed by the Arkansas Fruit Breeding Program, and the Luna avocado at the University of California, Riverside.

🍍Zoom In: It takes at least a decade to develop a new type of fruit, and the Rubyglow is no exception.

"Grown in Costa Rica after a 15-year development period, the Rubyglow Pineapple has a registered plant patent in the United States," according to a Fresh Del Monte press release.

Its scarcity is key to its price tag: While "only a few thousand" will be produced this year, the Rubyglow will be "available nationwide through select regional grocers" and online retailers.

Zoom Out: The Rubyglow is the latest newfangled pineapple from Fresh Del Monte — and the most expensive.

The Mini Honeyglow was introduced this year as a "personal-size" pineapple (read: small) that's sweeter than most — it costs a mere $11.79 (plus about $30 in shipping).

The Pinkglow Pineapple — launched in 2020, with flesh as pink as deli ham — costs $29 before shipping.

To merit its designer price tag, the Rubyglow "is individually packaged in a beautiful box that unfolds almost like origami," says Food & Wine.

The Bottom Line: Fruit salad is getting ready for a glow-up.

YES. The golden toad lived only in one specific forest in Monteverde, and to this day no one is entirely sure why it died out! Those who cared tried very hard to save them, but nothing could be done. The species reached a number so low it simply faded out. It was a tragedy 😭

Rufous-vented ground cuckoo (Neomorphus geoffroyi) from Costa Rica 🇨🇷

The rufous-vented ground cuckoo (Neomorphus geoffroyi) is a Vulnerable species of cuckoo in the tribe Neomorphini of subfamily Crotophaginae. It is found in Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Panama, and Peru.

The Rufous-vented Ground-Cuckoo is a beautiful but infrequently encountered bird. Like the other four species of ground-cuckoo in its genus, it is renowned for its scarcity and its highly elusive habits.

The IUCN has assessed the rufous-vented ground cuckoo as Vulnerable.

I've been trying to learn the world flags so I can identify them (for funsies) and I'm going by continent, starting with America because I am here 🇸🇻 💙

(Putting this under a readmore because longish post about thing that's probably not v interesting so I dont wanna be too annoying BUT. I wanna talk abt it a little anywayz sooo)

It's been SOOO fun, it's really exciting to see a random flag somewhere and to know whose flag it is : -D I passed by a travel agency poster thing with a bunch of South American and Caribbean flags and ahcdbjncd it feels so nice to know things

(only thing is that I've been pronouncing every country name in spanish, which would be correct for most of South America but like. not All of it, I'm sorry Suriname I didnt know the E is silent.. also 4 the Caribbean islands srry 4 pronouncing it Hamáica and Ay-tee(Haití) sobS)

I've been ignoring the USA and Canada flags completely, so a funny side effect of tht is I've been grouping up flags in categories where those 2 would fit, but I only notice a while after hbjnHBN

I was thinking "Out of the America flags, I can only think of 2 that are a vertical tricolor flag with white on the middle and red in one (or 2) of the sides.. Mexico 🇲🇽 and Perú 🇵🇪 😁" .. I forgor canada exists

And I was thinking "Oh there's SO many flags with the france colors here, there's Costa Rica 🇨🇷, Panamá 🇵🇦, República Dominicana 🇩🇴, Chile 🇨🇱, Cuba 🇨🇺, Puerto Rico 🇵🇷, Paraguay 🇵🇾, and Belice 🇧🇿 technically 😁, so many stars too" .. I forgor abt USA

Thinking also of the few flags that are a tricolor flag with white on the middle and blue on the sides,, El Salvador 🇸🇻 mi amor mi cielo mi vida she's in there with Guatemala 🇬🇹, Honduras 🇭🇳, Nicaragua 🇳🇮 and Argentina 🇦🇷

I'm excited to learn the rest of the flags of the other continents and see which ones I like the most, atm my favorites are El Salvador 🇸🇻(which will never change because I'm VERY biased) Bahamas 🇧🇸 and Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹, they look SO nice.. I'm excited to get to Africa, Botswana's flag 🇧🇼 looks super nice too.

(Hope the emojis aren't annoying, I included them so you don't have to google them)

Anytime I start even Thinking about flags, I inevitably spend at least an hour looking at them and I open a Million wikipedia and googleimages tabs about it.. I think it's been like 2 hours since I started typing this because I kept getting distracted with that.

I love any chance I get to talk about flags : -]

Yeap, I should have posted this THE day, but I wasn't feeling very well and and and

🇨🇷: oh every year you make a better combination!

🇦🇷: thanks! And you make the better couples!

🇵🇾: *eeeeeeh (because she's cosplaying James Sunderland and Costa Rica is Maria so, if you know the SH2, you know this isn't a good couple concept HAJKSJSJJS)

Of course I had to make Venezuela as Juri Han, because her characterization it's cat coded, and my beautiful Argentina is Cammy. I love the detail that C is British and Argentina clearly changed the flag 🇬🇧 in her costume, because not doing it would be very "Cold chest" of her part, innit?
