Giant Pineapple Scares the Villagers in Tacloban
The mysterious giant pineapple in Tacloban, Leyte scares the local residents thinking that it's a sign that something bad is about to happen in their town.
Steve Nash Diaz, the boy who planted the seed of the fruit right after Super Typhoon Yolanda hit the province in 2013, doesn't have any clue on what has caused the fruit to look differently. All he did from the time he planted the pineapple seeds was to regularly sprinkle the plant with ample water to ensure that it will grow healthy in their backyard. The family of the boy didn't notice something strange in the pineapple until its fruit has grown bigger and started to develop a weird shape.
As weeks passes by, the boy observed that the shape of the fruit became an inverted heart. Unlike any regular pineapple, this giant fruit has a ring of spiky leaves covering the majority of its surface.
According to the post of viralpick.com, the fruit has grown bigger and bigger until it became twice the size of the boy's head.
The pineapple is almost ripe but the villagers in Tacloban,Leyte are hesitant to take a bite of the fruit. Steve Nash is waiting for volunteers to eat the giant pineapple.
We'll try to see if someone from Tacloban will dare to eat the fruit in the coming days.
If you were in the location, would you accept the challenge? Will you eat this bizarre fruit?
