Wrought Iron Pineapple Outlet & Switch Cover :: Some fads come and go but others last through the generations. The pineapple as a symbol of hospitality is one of those lasting traditions.. Christopher Columbus introduced Europe to the amazing fruit. It reminded Europeans of pine cones due to it shape and hard shell so they named it a pineapple.
