Discovery of Pineapple...or so we thought...

At school, we were taught how the Europeans first discovered the pine-apple fruit and came up with the name, because it looked like 'pine' and tasted like 'apple'.

But just imagine, instead of the pineapple we know, it was something else:

When we first reached the shore, it was deserted.
Feels like 'Lord of all that he surveys'. Forget about the pose, it wasn't intentional...just comes naturally after too many years together.
It feels hard...wonder if it is edible (typical Chinese, but so did the Europeans, remember 'tastes like apple'?)
'Looks like and feels like pineapple, but I am not, do you mind?'
