Since we are moving right now, I am spending my days packing boxes of our things. Pineapple is a healthy snack that I can have to distract me occasionally from what can be a very frustrating task. (Note to self: do not move again for at least 2 years.)
The ingredients for the sweet/salty/spicy topping are simple and you most likely have them in your kitchen already. You can adjust everything to your own taste- spicy or not. Here is how I made my topping:
1 tablespoon dried red pepper flakes (if you can find dried Thai chili flakes, it would be more authentic)
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (if you have the Thai chili flakes, don't use this)
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon salt
Mix all the ingredients together and sprinkle over the freshly cut pineapple.
Try this- you won't regret it!

Hmm, i just had some pineapple today and it is on sale for cheap at the local farmers market... perhaps this is needing to be tried. Thanks!
Well, this was meant to be! I hope you like it. Thanks for the post!
Oooohhh. This is so good. The Vietnamese will eat pineapple like this too and it makes my mouth water everytime I think about it. As if it weren't tasty enough on it's own, the spicy, sweet, salty add ons send it over the top.
Agreed! I like to do this kind of thing with popcorn too- anything to get the sweet/salty combo!

Nice and simple. That's the way I roll. Do you think it would be good without the sugar?
Yes. The pineapple is sweet by itself, so it should still be yummy.
