I’VE REDISCOVERED PINEAPPLE JUICE
I picked up a six-pack of small 6oz. cans of Tropicana Pineapple Juice a couple weeks ago to use as a marinade on a piece of meat I was going to smoke. I needed only three cans and put the remaining three in the pantry. Over the next two weeks every time I opened the pantry door I was face to face with those pineapple juice cans. And each time, after having a fleeting thought of how much I used to love pineapple juice, I’d think about taking a can down from the shelf and drinking it. But each time, I closed the pantry door and moved on to something else, leaving the pineapple juice where it sat. Until today.
Today, the second best part of my morning was pouring six ounces of canned pineapple juice over a large chunk of ice in a glass. The best part of the morning, of course, was drinking it, and I can’t tell you how refreshing it was. An hour later I opened another can and did the same thing. It’s early evening now and taking no small amount of willpower to keep me from finishing off the remaining can of pineapple juice.
I won’t be without pineapple juice anymore.
