You will be surprised how many ingredients pair well with pineapple. Never be afraid to experiment with pineapple in salads.  The fresh tropical fruity flavours of pineapple make it a natural pairing with other tropical fruits like mango, banana, papaya and passionfruit. It also has a slight citrus aroma, making pineapple a good companion to prawns, fish, and crab.  You may not realise it, but some alcoholic beverages, such as rum, have a fruity aroma, so they are often paired with pineapple.  So there is a good food pairing reason behind the classic pina colada cocktail other than good looks and a pretty umbrella.  The deep caramel-roasted flavours of grilled pineapple are fantastic with more robust umami flavours such as soy sauce, chocolate, caramel and peanut butter. Therefore the sweet, savoury salad would work a treat.
