Pineapple is a fruit, but it is not a citrus fruit. Citrus fruits belong to the family Rutaceae. Pineapple, however, are of the family Bromeliaceae. One of the main differences between the two is that citrus trees bear fruit from their branches, while pineapple fruit is the stem of the plant. Although not in the family of Rutaceae (citrus fruits), pineapple is very acidic and it is known that Pineapple pickers have no finger prints left due to the acidity in Pineapple.
