Located in Wahiawa, Oahu, The Dole Plantation has roots all the way back to the fruit stand James Dole opened in this location in 1950. A friend who had visited before described the experience as &#8220;worse than hell,&#8221; but I was not deterred, and was in fact so eager to begin my pineapple experience that I managed to arrive half an hour before they opened for business. A solitary employee eyeballed our group suspiciously, no doubt wondering how sheltered our lives had been that we were frothing at the mouth to learn about pineapples, and she was right to do so.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Pineapple Express<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mellzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/pineapple-express1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-32521\" src=\"https:\/\/mellzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/pineapple-express1.jpg\" alt=\"pineapple express\" width=\"680\" height=\"510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mellzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/pineapple-express1.jpg 680w, https:\/\/mellzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/pineapple-express1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mellzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/pineapple-express1-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/mellzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/pineapple-express1-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/mellzah.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/pineapple-express1-200x150.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Before you can board The Pineapple Express, a helpful employee photographs your group holding a pineapple (a rare opportunity, and something you certainly could not do for free at any grocery store in the nation).\u00a0 With our group of three, it looked like nothing so much as a family outing with our au pair and our pineappley baby.

We sweated, and swore, and took advantage of routes that may or may not have been official pathways, but damn it, we did it. Exactly one hour later, we emerged from the maze, triumphant and desperately thirsty. The fastest time on record for the maze is seven minutes, and I can only assume that not only did that person take advantage of a shortcut or two, but also went at a time where they&#8217;d have to dodge fewer double-wide strollers and <a href=\"https:\/\/mellzah.com\/index.php\/the-deep-discount-bin-a-field-guide-to-demons\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">basic bitches<\/a> splashing around their starbucks drinks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Gift Shop That May Be Larger Than All Of The Other Activities Combined<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Holy hell.

There were approximately twelve different pressed penny machines inside the building; I kept turning around and finding new ones. There were like four &#8220;pick an oyster&#8221; stands on the grounds which is <em>ridiculous<\/em>.

I&#8217;m thinking that the &#8220;cheapass crumbum death glare&#8221; must be part of their training. All I&#8217;m saying is, when you chum the water with coupons, you shouldn&#8217;t be surprised when you attract cheapasses.<\/p>\n<p>I expected that this would be the one place in Hawaii where I was practically guaranteed to be able to eat or drink something out of a pineapple. I&#8217;d mandated before I left for Hawaii that I would eat or drink nothing that didn&#8217;t come served in a pineapple or a coconut, but recanted early in the trip when I realized that meant I&#8217;d probably die of thirst on day three. The restaurant did offer one option served in a pineapple&#8211;a <em>thirty dollar<\/em> ice cream split.
