What it is

Crushed pineapple is made from ripe pineapples that have been mechanically broken down into smaller pieces. It retains the natural flavor, aroma, and sweetness of the fruit. It is often canned or frozen for preservation and ease of use in food production.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use crushed pineapple primarily as a flavoring ingredient and for its natural sweetness. It adds a tropical taste and moisture to baked goods like cakes and cupcakes, and can also be found in sauces, marinades, and condiments.

Crushed pineapple is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a source of vitamin C and manganese. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated pineapple and its components, but no specific health concerns are associated with its typical consumption as a food ingredient.
