This was very hard and I could not figure it out. But it was fun!
..definitely another duplicate..?? what the heck?? maybe i'm going insane
Pineapples are not peeled, they are cut open.
what did rocker17 write? Neway, i agree with suzygirl. Pineapples r cut open. Good teaser.
I enjoyed this one!
needed a few friends to help with the math great one

The line about "peeling" a pineapple is not only wrong, but also unnecessary. Otherwise, very fun!
"fruit salad.....yummy yummy" (wiggles)
Difficult...... I got the half of it right though. I'm awesome, I know.......you can get autographs later!!!

Pinapples are peeled! They are cut open as well. I guess people eat them differently. I peel them. Actually I don't, my dad does...nevermind!
You do have to peel a pineapple, not like an apple but you do have to cut the hard skin off... maybe the word "peel" was confusing. The math wasn't too bad, mixed up the price of the oranges and bananas around... otherwise, I did good with this one!
It was very easy and fun! And another thing i totally agree with Nicky101 because i also peel pineapples!!!!!!!!
About this whole pineapple arguement, I'm going to have to swing along with those who are saying that they are not peeled. Basically the easiest way to eat the is to hold the by the outside and dig in to the yummy yellow goodness that comes along with it. It's the easiest and and the messiest.
this was a really great teaser!! but, i agree, pineapples are definately cut not peeled! I guess different people do it different ways, so i understand!!

good teaser! i had fun solving it.
I got this one!!! As for the peel arg., I peel mine, but it could just be your definition of peel. I have to use a knife to peel it, (like an apple). But I guess you could say that I cut it too.
Lots of fun. Keep up the good work. More puzzles like this one please.
On the pineapple debate, I buy them already precut. It saves time!!!!

you dont peel pineapples? i guess your saying you eat the outside of them right? of course you have to take off thr uutside and thats called peeling duh! Anyways, this one was too easy. took me like 1 minute
I got 3 of the fruits wrong. But 2 Right.
One of my favorites. By the way, to comment on one of the observations above, I hope the girl who think pineapples don't need to be peeled never tries to eat fresh pineapple without peeling it! She'll cut her mouth to pieces. Good grief.
Sorry: should have read: thinks, not think. The pineapple thing must have fried my brain.
Pineapples have to be peeled. Unless of course you WANT to eat the thorny stuff on the outside. This on was fun
Pineapples have skins which are sliced to get the thorns off. When you peel a fruit you are able to take the "peel" off without a knife.
Why are there apple peelers and potato peelers? You can eat an apple without pealing it but some people peel them firest. You have to peel a banana to eat it and you don't need a knife. You have to peel an orange to eat it and you don't need a knife but with most oranges it is much easier to peel it with a knife. I would say that you have to peel a pineapple to eat it.
now wasn't that all stupid???????
YOU MORONS THAT WAS ONLY 10 EMOTICONS. AND WHY CAN'T I HAVE MORE??????????
THAT IS TEN EMOTICONS SO YOU HAD BETTER LET ME DO THIS I GOT RID OF ONE NOW THERE ARE ONLY NINE YOU WON'T LET ME DO TEN YOU STUPID MORONS!!!!!!!!!!!
wow.
yay!!! that one was easy. who'd pay $4 for a grape?
Agreed.
The pineapples cost $10
..and because the orange costs $2... and the only factors of 10 in the puzzle are 2 and 5... then you know that the pineapples HAVE to be $5 each..
..which means that the clue about the $5 fruit being peelable is completely redundant ^_^
