Anyone try this yet? I do not know what i did... but i seem to have a lot of the filling left over. We have not eat it yet.. we will tomorrow... but hmm...

We did not have luck with the pineapple corer... maybe cause the pineapple was hard to get leveled.. but it was just smashing it and we had pineapple juice everywhere... i am not sure if i will offer this one or not... i initially thought i would....

what are your thoughts for those who have made it
 
I didn't have any problems with this! It was really great.
 
The pineapple corer is easier if you cut the pineapple in half and core each half. It has less distance to travel, but also, you have to rock the corer back and forth as you press down or it will just smush everywhere and make a mess.
