Ananas macrodontes is a plant species closely related to the pineapple, in the family Bromeliaceae. Its common name is the false pineapple, a name shared with the not closely related Pandanus kaida. There is no consensus whether this species should belong in the same genus as the pineapple (Ananas), or in its own genus (Pseudananas).
