The ancient gods of Greece and Rome satiated their hunger with ambrosia, a food with exuberant colors, an elegant aroma and a taste that has the perfect combination of sweetness and acidity.
No one knows what this divine food looks like except the people from the island of São Miguel in Azores. It is an open secret that ambrosia grows in the island in the form of a small pineapple.
While other places produce ordinary pineapples meant for human consumption, São Miguel produces extraordinary pineapples meant for the gods.
If you visit the island, don’t miss the chance to try this transcendent food. Just make sure the gods are not looking.

Love this article. Short, witty, beautifully written. Makes me want to go to Azores, so that I can try this fruit.
Thank you so much for your generous comment! These short texts are often the ones that take the longest to write.
Saudades do ananás!
Yes, the best pineapples I’ve ever tasted –eaten truly fresh in the Azores. Sheer bliss……
Bliss indeed!
Obrigado.
