Supermarkets in Hanoi have been experiencing frequent stockouts as locals stock up on food in preparation for rainy, stormy, or flooded days. Many shelves selling essential food items like meat, fish, and vegetables are quickly emptied. In fact, those who arrive at the supermarket late often find nothing left as all the shelves are bare.
However, among all the empty shelves, one familiar fruit can still be spotted…

These photos have evoked mixed reactions from people, with many guessing the reason why pineapples are often left behind while other fruits and vegetables are sold out. The reason, they speculate, is that pineapples take a long time to peel due to their prickly skin and numerous eyes. Not only is it time-consuming, but it also requires careful attention to remove all the prickles and eyes to avoid irritation while eating.
Some humorous comments include:
– By the time I finish peeling this pineapple, the floodwaters will have receded.
– Who has time to sit and peel during a flood or storm?
– I’d be done peeling by the time the water levels start to drop.
– I know why these pineapples are left behind just by looking at them.
– Pineapple is delicious, but I’ll pass if it’s not peeled.
– I’ll pass on the pineapple for now, too tiring to peel.
