What is a Pineapple?

a.) Vegetable

b.) Berry

c.) Nut

Yes, pineapple is considered a type of berry. It is classified as a multiple fruit, which means it develops from the fusion of multiple flowers into a single fruit. The individual "scales" on the surface of a pineapple are actually individual flowers that have fused together.

So, while it might not fit the typical image of a berry, pineapples do fall under the definition of a berry!
