Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona．

He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends．

My earliest memories of my father are of a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and family, but uncomfortable with his children．As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him．He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was．Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard．

       On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor café．We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions．Gone was my father’s critical (挑剔的) air and strict rules．Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before?

The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood．Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father．And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was．

More than 10 years ago, it was difficult to buy a tasty pineapple．The fruits that made it to the UK were green on the outside and, more often than not, hard with an unpleasant taste within．Then in 1996, the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves．

The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green．It was slightly softer on the outside and had a lot of juice inside．But the most important thing about this new type of pineapple was that it was twice as sweet as the hit-and-miss pineapples we had known．In no time,the Del Monte Gold took the market by storm, rapidly becoming the world’s best-selling pineapple variety,and delivering natural levels of sweetness in the mouth,up until then only found in tinned pineapple．

In nutrition (營養(yǎng)) it was all good news too．This nice-tasting pineapple contained four times more vitamin C(維生素C)than the old green variety．Nutritionists said that it was not only full of vitamins,but also good against some diseases．People were understandably eager to be able to buy this wonderful fruit．The new type of pineapple was selling fast,and the Del Monte Gold pineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater．

Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple, Del Monte tried to keep the market to itself．But other fruit companies developed similar pineapples.
