This pie is best if under-baked and a bit gooey like a brownie inside. This is a very rich pie, so small slices are advised.

Cook over very low heat, stirring constantly, about 10 minutes, until mix coats a spoon. Remove from heat. Stir in drained pineapple, lemon juice, and lemon rind. Cool until mix begins to jell. Beat egg whites to soft peaks. Gradually beat in remaining sugar (1/3 cup), beating to a stiff meringue. Gently fold into pineapple mix. Spoon into shell. Chill until firm. Fun Fact: In colonial times, pineapples were recognized as a symbol for hospitality. Sea captains would bring this exotic fruit home from their journeys and mount it on the fence post to indicate they were at home and available to receive visitors.
