Her Majesty: this, that, pineapple!
You probably know the classic German recipe Toast Hawaii, right?
Take toast, ham, cheese and pineapple and the snack is ready.
What for us today is more of a simple student meal was considered a real affluent dish in the 1950s.
Cheese AND ham on a slice of bread?
What decadence and not to mention the exotic pineapple on top!
The pineapple was already considered a sign of wealth in earlier times, as only a few nobles could afford an expensive greenhouse for the tropical delicacy in the 18th century.
Pineapple was more expensive than gold and therefore a real status symbol, which still decorates many castles and villas today.
Fortunately, we can now easily buy pineapples in the supermarket.
