Like all good things in life, that sweet, juicy reward inside is always worth the prickles and the pain at the start.
It's a versatile fruit, and people have attacked it in a million different ways over the years, from cubing it and juicing it to slicing it into rings.
The pineapple possibilities are positively endless, but it takes dedication and elbow grease.
But, as Dillon showed the world this week, all you really need is your dainty little fingers and an open mind to pluck the pine straight from the apple.
The video was later tweeted by 21-year-old UK student Lewis McCluskey and captioned: "I'm sorry but what the actual f**k".
This is just the first taste of the effect this hack has had on the universe.
Apologies in advance for Dillon's outrageously loud chewing in the background, I don't know where his manners are.
After a million objections to the monstrously loud, sloppy background noise, Lewis also offered an apology: "Just to clarify this obvs isn't me chomping in the video … I'm not an animal."
Despite the horrendous mouth noises, the video caused an apoplectic reaction from the internet.
It was retweeted more than 43,000 times, liked by more than 130,000 people and the comments are truly something else.
But the MVP award goes to this guy who explained the unique anatomy of a pineapple makes it possible to pluck each piece out with your fingers. Because pineapples are simply a collection of berries.
