The pineapple is purely irrelevant. It could well have been mangoes or guavas or melons. What's important is the transfer of blood from the vendor to the boy and then possibly infection via a cut , perhaps on the boy's lips or in his mouth.
I would say it's entirely plausible and for those people who don't think so - would you eat a blood-tainted piece of fruit from the same vendor? I think not!!

if the story is true then the pineapple didn't give the kid AIDS, it was the guy that cut the pineapple.

where did you get this information? if you heard it by word of mouth, i think it probably isn't true. if you were actually there, that would be a different story.

sounds like an urban legend about AIDS. but seriously i mean was the pineapple smothered in blood or was there just a drop of it. and was the pineapple freshly sliced. i means aids virus cannot live outside the body very long. pineapple is very acidic so it might killed the HIV virus although this has not been proven yet.

You don't "catch" AIDS. You become infected with HIV, which can eventually develop into AIDS years or decades later.
The whole story is made up. Obviously.

Well from the story I guess it's possible, but extremely rare! You can only contract AIDS from infected bodily fluids. But still... on a pineapple. Goodness.

That's ridiculous. The HIV virus cannot live outside the body. Even if the guy had bleed into the child's mouth, it wouldn't give him HIV unless it got into his bloodstream.

I don't believe it is true either as the AIDS virus or HIV virus needs to be transferred as a living organism. If that story is true it most likely will be some bizairre twist of fate and not worth worrying about anyway.
