Fruit Problem

[Dee-M-See]

If Apples and Bananas have skins
and Oranges and Potatoes have peel
What do Pineapples have?
This could be a trick question and the answer could be a Tins
But I am not sure as there maybe a sensible answer

I've known it to be called the shell, but whether that's the answer I wouldn't like to say. As for the tins possibility, most of the others can be found in tins nowadays.

I thought it was Shell

Husk is another possibility, as per this:
Popular children's cartoon character Sponge Bob Square Pants lives in a pineapple husk in an underwater town called Bikini Bottom beneath the Bikini Atoll, in the central Pacific Ocean.

Doesn't one peel an apple rather skin an apple?

My gradmother certainly did whenever she made an apple pie.

Diane 1954 - I wish.
I click onto this site now and then while I'm waiting for answers to e-mails. It's better than twiddling thumbs, and I learn a lot of useless information.
