Do you mean "pina" or "piña" because there is a difference. Take a quick peek at the dictionary, which is located above.
Edit I don't think that the dictionary will help with this one. Here's the video, maybe someone can tell us what "We are all a pineapple" means.
Edit #2 I found it....
"Una piña" can mean a close-knit group (de gente)
"Formar una piña" is to rally round.
Pina is a kind of milestone.
Piña is a pineapple.
The tilde on the letter Ñ is not an ornament.
I think it's piña: todos somos una piña: we're all together in a group
Piña: a clique, select group, two or more people who act as one

Piña is a pineapple.

The dictionary needs to be changed - it lists "pineapple" as the translations for both "pina" and "piña". The actual definitions seem accurate.
In the "Word of the Day" (Nov 17, 2010), they use 'piña' in the following: Para cada vara y piña que recoges del patio, te daré 25 centavos. - I'll give you a quarter for every branch and pine cone you pick up from the yard.
Thus, piña refers to a pine cone in this particular example.
