This Pineapple Eating Hack Is Going Viral and It’s Rocking Us to Our (Erm) Core

Who doesn’t love sinking their teeth into a nice, juicy pineapple? The only annoying part is having to peel and slice the fruit in order to enjoy it. Well, no more, pineapple lovers. Actress Lena Headey (aka Cersei Lannister from Game of Thronesrecently shared a genius hack on Instagram, and it’s a total game-changer—no fancy knife skills required. 

In the video, Headey holds up the yellow fruit (with the top and bottom chopped off) and proceeds to slowly peel each perfectly bite-size portion off of the pineapple straight from its core. Mind. Blown. 

But before you get too excited, some users pointed out that this technique only works with a certain type of pineapple, namely the “Gomos de mel,” a smaller variety of the fruit that’s especially juicy. Others noted that it can work with other pineapples but that they need to be extremely ripe. 

A Lannister always pays…for the extra juicy pineapple? Now there’s a GoT plot twist.
