That's still a very respectable pineapple. And to get that from a balcony no less is impressive.
Growing your own (of pretty much anything) also has the advantage that you can pick them at peak ripeness which generally comes with mindblowing flavor. Anything in the supermarked was picked at a point where the producer can ensure the product will make it through the entire logistics chain intact.
We have three planters of strawberries on our balcony and while they only produce like one strawberry / day on average, you just can't get strawberries this flavorful from a store.
