This was wonderfull, It tastes great, I cant wait to use it in some recipes that call for pineapple! Mine was plenty yellow, i did not need to add any coloring to mine. Thanks for the great recipe.

Brilliant!! I ended up canning half and freezing half. What a wonderful idea! Who knew? I will use this recipe every year at harvest time!

Excellent! My husband had told me that his mother (who has been gone for years) used to make pineapple from zucchini, and I thought he was crazy, until my mom and I found this recipe and tried it for ourselves. I can't wait to present him with a jar of this when he comes back from Iraq next month!!! He'll be so surprised! My mom made crushed, tidbits, and even rings, when she found a zucchini that just happened to be the right shape to cut rings from. My neighbor used the tidbits in stirfry with great results, and Mom made a great pan of pineapple bars with the crushed. We can't wait to try the rings for pineapple upside down cake! Some reviewers mentioned adding coloring or pineapple flavoring, but we haven't found that necessary. The pineapple juice adds enough flavor and color for us. My mom cooks at a nursing home, and has taken samples of this in to work, and will likely be making some as a project with the residents there! Thanks for reviving this tradition for us!

TWO THUMBS UP!!!! This was a great way to use an OVER abundance of zucchini!!! It tastes just like "crushed pineapple". I did add yellow food coloring to my recipe to make it look more like pineapple, before the water bath canning and it only made 10 pints for me....but I am not complaining!! MMMMM good
