Notes
How to Cut a Pineapple into Chunks:
Twist off top of pineapple, and discard.
Place pineapple on cutting board, and cut about 1/2 inch off the top and the bottom, and discard.
Stand up your pineapple, and then cut off the outer layer all the way around.
Once you've removed the outer layer, cut right down the middle of the core of the pineapple, so now you've got two large pieces. Then cut each of those in half, right down the core. You will have four large pieces at this point.
Cut each of those pieces in half, right down the core again, so now you'll have 8 pieces.
Each piece will now have a sharp triangle edge (the core). Simply cut the core off of each piece and discard.
Then cut each piece into chunks, about 1" - 1.5" wide. That's it! Now you're ready to blend up your pineapple milkshake!
