The 10 Funniest Reviews Of Rachael Ray’s Pineapple Wedges
![]() |
Back on November 17, 2010, we featured Rachael Ray’s Pineapple Wedges as our “ridiculous recipe of the week.” If you’ll recall, it’s a “faboo” little “recipe” that lets us know we can SLICE A PINEAPPLE INTO WEDGES AND EAT IT!

Since then, reviewers have had a field day trolling the Food Network’s website and leaving hilarious reviews. Here are our 10 favorites:
I gave this one star because the recipe does not tell you that the spikes on the outside of the pineapple are a challenge to digest. -iabbervocium
I tried this recipe and I blacked out! The next think I know I’m in a Bankok emergency room missing half my organs! Other than that it was ok. -Monkeyspan
I didn’t have a knife, so I tried smashing the pineapple with a hammer. Now my floor has a big hole in it. Not happy. -countrychickenpie
This recipe has been a closely gaurded secret in my family for generations! How DARE you claim it a your own!?!?! -explodingp
I don’t live anywhere near a beach, river, lake or pond, so a boat would be rather useless. Instead, I made pineapple bicycles and teeny tiny bicycle helmets out of grapes. All my friends at group therapy loved them! pattipoopidoo
I’m so glad that she came up with this recipe. I’ve been using Sandra Lee’s recipe for canned pineapples and I sprained my wrist using the can opener. Thank you Rachel, my wrist has healed thanks to you! -ilovegnomeland
I have never enjoyed pineapple, prior to trying this recipe. Furthermore, while making this delightful dish, I had an epiphany. Perhaps the reason I don’t enjoy bananas is due to my method of preparing them, as well? While I eagerly await a “Sliced Bananas” recipe, I have to warn you, this can get messy. Do not attempt to prepare “Pineapple Wedges” on the couch during the commercial breaks while watching your afternoon soaps, as I did. Also, when Ken found out Marsha’s baby was really Dr. Jones’s and not his father’s after all, it upset me so much that the tears blurred my vision and I ended up in the ER, getting 14 stitches. Also, the carpet is ruined. Other than that, great! -Bitey
Can you serve this with the Late Night Bacon? -nursecindy
Rachel, do you have a recipe for ice cubes you could post? Maybe dumb it down a bit for the home cook? -The Noodle
I hope she posts one on peeling an orange soon. I’ve got one in my fridge I’ve been trying to eat for days. -jake999

I was going to post which one was my favorite, but then I realized I loved them all and giggled at all of them.
It’s a plating suggestion masquerading as a recipe.
I love the one from pattipoopidoo about the tiny bicycles and helmets.Thats just too funny
That’s my favorite, as well.
Wow, too funny!
My favorite was “I tried this recipe and I blacked out! The next think I know I’m in a Bankok emergency room missing half my organs! Other than that it was ok. -Monkeyspan”
“Other than that it was OK”, makes this whole comment absolutely hysterical!
Hahahaha! Agreed!
Great stuff.
I’m eagerly awaiting Rachel’s recipe for “fresh apple”.
“Take one (1) apple out of fridge.
Eat.”
Given what we have seen thus far with these recipes, I’m sure this one would not be long in coming.
What, no step telling us to wash said apple? =P
What about removing the sticker?
When I was little I once ate the sticker. It doesn’t taste good.
Without the picture, the “recipe” would be difficult to understand.
“Quarter the pineapple lengthwise. Using a thin, sharp knife cut core away from each wedge..” What am I supposed to use to quarter the pineapple?
“cut the fruit away from it using your knife, keeping the green tops attached.” So the greens are staying with the fruit?
I dunno, with all those intricate steps I think this should be classified as intermediate. I’m kinda having dexterity problems with alternately separating the fruit from left to right. Maybe it’s because I started on the right?
All the comments were great…but the ice cube recipe request really sent me over the edge!
I had to chortle at that one also.
I agree it’s idiotic and the comments are hilarious but I feel the need to point out that they at least classify it as a method, not a recipe.
Then they should make a separate part of their garish website for methods and people will not need to make hilarious comments like these.
I see that the directions made a point of telling people to use a “thin, sharp knife” to cut the pineapple… as opposed to a dull knife? A spork? A spoon?
Snickering at the Sandra Lee comment
I love the one about Sandra Lee’s recipe for canned pineapples.
For anyone who watches the Rachael Ray Show, I hate to spoil this for you but count the amount of times she uses the word “literally.” She literally cooks in 30 minutes. Greta literally cut her hair shorter. Jaaaaaahn’s parents literally hate biting into pieces of garlic. She literally invented the ovate spaghetti pot. Did she just learn it? I literally find it exasperating which is why I can’t watch her any longer. Congrats, Oprah, for literally reinventing another you. Self-congratulatory and literally full of yourself.
I so love snark. Thanks for the belly laugh!
Got a good laugh out of those comments.
Coming soon…Ray Ray’s recipe for ice water:
–Grab glass out of cupboard
–Pour water from faucet
–Drop one or two ice cubes in water.
Serves one.
The comments are hilarious, my favourites are the ice cubes and the peeling the orange one ahahah
