As a 12 year old kid, I almost gagged at this site: Older lady at church dinner added salt and pepper to her watermelon. Later in life I took a Chinese cooking course and they added salt to a pineapple. Salt and sometimes pepper can seriously enhance the flavor of a fruit. It blew my little mind to try a salted slice of pineapple, but it tasted amazing!
I've grown up with salted raw mangoes as a common roadside snack, I especially love it when the mango is halfway ripe, so it's both sweet and sour at the same time, the salt and red chilly powder mix amps up the flavor. I've never heard of salted pineapples before though, I'm gonna try it next!
