These are some of the tastiest pineapples in Thailand. They are small to tiny compared to a regular pineapple and called Phulae. The taste is sweet with crunchy texture. The fruit is seen at many street food stalls around the country and best served on ice.

The beautiful people at the village of Ban Pong Phrabet in the north of Thailand come together to harvest and process the baby pineapples from the surrounding hills. Once the freshly harvested pineapples are delivered to the village the cutting starts and expert hands make short work of the many tonnes of the golden fruit delivered daily. The pineapples are grown on the slopes of the surrounding hills and its tough work trekking amongst the dagger like leaves in search of these babies. Once processed they are packed then iced and sent by truck into Laos on their way to China. The whole village revolves around the growing and export of this wonderful fruit.

Thank you to the amazing people of Ban Pong Phrabet for allowing us to film at their village.
