I eat pineapple when I'm dieting to sort out any sugar cravings as its so sweet.Much better for you than doughnuts so I wouldn't worry too much.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe · 28/07/2020 13:46

Not at all. Do you though have some cinnamon you could mix with a bit of sugar, to coat the peeled pineapple in... and then caramelise it with a blow torch.

Now THAT is pineapple. I had it in a restaurant once and still fantasise about it. Couldn't tell you the rest of the menu.

You need to build up to a whole pineapple OP and you don’t state your post your pineapple eating history.

YANBU if you’ve trained for this and are just showing off your fruit eating prowess.
YABU if you did this out of pure laziness and/or greediness. Next time open a can of soup, your digestive system will thank you for it later.

LiquoricePickle · 28/07/2020 13:49

YANBU. Sounds delicious.

Tlollj · 28/07/2020 13:50

You’ll shit through the eye of a needle. But other than that go for it.

rottiemum88 · 28/07/2020 13:55

I'm struggling to believe you could be so naive. I'd imagine your average pineapple has quite a number of jam doughnuts worth of sugar... Confused

allotmentgardener · 28/07/2020 13:57

A whole pineapple is great for constipation.

Bargebill19 · 28/07/2020 13:58

All these people saying you will poop for England ..... I find it hard to believe. Never happened to either of us yet. Mind you I do eat loads of pineapples.
Much tastier than a manky doughnut. 🤮

DefinatelyAWeeGobshite · 28/07/2020 14:06

Oh I wish I could do this but my poor tongue. The pain, the pain!!!

Bargebill19 · 28/07/2020 14:06

????😋😋

TinkersTailor · 28/07/2020 14:07

@Lilifer

Wait whoah is there a lot of sugar in pineapples?? But they're fruit???
Are you joking? Shock
IwanttogotoMataland · 28/07/2020 14:15

I'd be spewing on a lot less than a whole pineapple.

Fatted · 28/07/2020 14:17

I once ate so many pickled onions in one go that I lost my voice. Can't even blame it on being pregnant.

Crack on OP, I'll send you some Gaviscon for the impending heartburn and immodium for when it starts working it's way through.

TheTurnOfTheScrew · 28/07/2020 14:35

I once ate a whole big family sized tub of chopped pineapple. I bought it to share at work but no-one wanted any, and it was so good I kept picking at it. My mouth was SOOOO inflamed by the time I'd finished. I couldn't feel may face properly until the next day.

winewolfhowls · 28/07/2020 14:48

Well you may get the shits but if you're a bloke your spunk will taste much nicer. Silver linings.

If you're not a bloke then your fingerprints might dissolve and you start a career as a master criminal.
Still silver linings.

Fanthorpe · 28/07/2020 14:52

Yes Fatted, I made Mexican pickled onion( red onion in lemon juice), which I polished off when I was clearing up after a dinner party. Spent the rest of the night in severe pain, what was I thinking!!!!!

honeygirlz · 28/07/2020 14:56

I eat a lot of varied fruit, maybe I’ve built a tolerance? A whole pineapple has no effect on me.

betterNCforthis · 28/07/2020 15:02

Wow, I'm not sure I could do that.

I do remember reading somewhere that eating fruit like pineapple makes sperm taste sweeter/nicer. I wonder if they is equivalent change for a woman? OP ... you'll have to ask you're DP/DH to do a taste test and report back to us!

Croprotationinthe14thcentury · 28/07/2020 15:02

I once ate a family sized punnet of pineapple and it gave me really bad contractions for about 2 hours after. I thought I was going to have a baby i was unaware of! Interested to see if anyone else has ever had the same? Put me off pineapple ever since

BobbinThreadbare123 · 28/07/2020 15:07

You don't digest pineapple, it digests you....bromelain!

if we could force it to target fat specifically, it would be the discovery of the century!

justanotherneighinparadise · 28/07/2020 15:15

I say YABVU. The sugar!!!!!!!!!

GoshHashana · 28/07/2020 15:22

Did you honestly not know that fruit is full of sugar??

CharlieandLolaCat · 28/07/2020 15:24

Literally made my 6 yr old DS's tongue bleed last week. He licked the wall to make himself feel better so I then also had to clear blood off the walls. Didn't realise it was a thing until I googled it. If it does happen. Milk.

Leostar · 28/07/2020 15:27

Please don't

Your mouth will feel like shite afterwards. Something to do with the enzymes eating the lining of your mouth

Did it once. Never again
