Christopher Columbus propelled the pineapple into the European (and eventually the American) consciousness. Columbus and his crew "discovered" the pineapple in Guadeloupe in 1493 on their second (less famous) voyage to the New World. They called it the piña, due to its resemblance to a pinecone, and brought the "exotic" fruit back to Spain.
Later explorers were equally enchanted. Sir Walter Ralegh, for example, wrote of "the great abundance of Pinas, the princesse of fruits that grow vnder the Sun" in his 1595 travelogue Discoverie of the Large, Rich, and Bewtiful Empyre of Guiana.
