I've made that drink but with cranberries and extra splenda to sweeten..was
awesome!

my current addiction is crystal light grape mixed strong with sparkling
water...perfect grape soda!

even weirder, splenda bothers me not at all, and i can eat all the fresh
strawberries i want, but the frozen make me have symptoms not unlike
anaphalatic, sp shock, my throat, mouth and tounge swell to the point of
impairing breathing... the nutrea crap gives me similar but not as sevre
swelling but a 12 oz can of diet soda will send me to th er for a migraine
shot... it is my weird allergies that make me so accepting of others dietary
habits, if i am allergic to things so natural as fresh pineapple, frozen
strawberries, it is very easy to beleive that while for me animal protien is
a must for weight control and general feeling well, that others can and do
have very bad negative reactions to same.

I can eat most melons but the Honey Dew makes me puke every time I eat it.
Cantaloupe causes no problems. I can eat all other fruits with no problem

my father's allergist told him that enzymes in different foods are toxic to
some people and cooking/freezing changes this so they react differently

I have never liked honey dew. Rockmelon (cantaloupe) is my favourite.

Could it have been a preservative? Like sulphur for instance?

no supposedly according to him the cold/heat affects the cell structure and
chemical make up of various foods, sorta like pine trees don't procreate
until there is a fire and the cones explode... have tried pineapple on
several occasions, strawberries a couple times, but accidental ingestion
keeps me very aware of its negative effects, Lee

Fresh pineapple just kills me! It isn't an allergy but it gives me blisters
in my mouth. Same for oranges unless they are processed in something. As
for frozen things, I don't much like them. I can have something if it is
super hot outside. But as a general rule, yuck.

I am wondering if I have a problem with canned pineapple now. I haven't
eaten any in years but I bought a can at the health food store the other
day. It wasn't good, like I remembered it. It was hard and tough and had
some of those little brown bits still on some pieces. Not sure what you
call them. I ate it with cottage cheese.

Not long after is when I threw up.

I know I can't take anything with bromelain in it. I tried a supplement and
then was accidentally sold the wrong supplement at the same health food
store that contained it. Causes me severe stomach pains and then I burp a
lot. Not good.

But why I wonder about the canned stuff is... Every time I use the toilet,
I smell pineapple. I think I ate it on Sunday, and I am still smelling it.
Of course I do have gastroparesis so my digestion is slowed.

I can't stand the texture of watermelons so don't eat those. But all other
melons? They give me stomach pains and make me burp. So no melons for me.

Angela loves all melons. But we don't buy them very often because there is
just sooo much meat in a melon. She can never eat it all before it goes
bad. When I find cut up ones, we will buy a piece or some chunks.

Last summer, Central Market had a melon tasting. They must have had 50
kinds of melon there! I didn't know so many existed.

She ran around with toothpicks, picking chunks out of the ice and eating
them. Then when it came time to buy some, she couldn't decide. She finally
chose two. And wouldn't you know... They never got eaten. Went bad before
I could fix them.

I used to buy a lot of them in NY. I have a couple of platters that are
full of that blue ice type stuff. You keep them in the freezer and they
will keep your food cold for a couple of hours or more, even on a hot day.
I used to cut up lots of fruit and put it outside for all the kids. We went
through a ton of fruit there!

No, they're not. I've been IgE and IgG tested and I'm not allergic. There
is some way to treat a fresh pineapple so that it won't do that. Has
something to do with cutting the top off and letting it stand, upside down
in the fridge, I think. I don't like pineapple so much that I would try it.

I also have something called OAS (oral allergy syndrome) to almonds and
pistachios. This is also common for people to have with raw foods but they
can eat the cooked.

I get that when my husband is home. He can eat the whole thing by himself
in two days. Also get the plain pineapple for him. Pineapple doesn't
bother him. He lived in Hawaii for a while. For Angela I just get the
sliced apples and the canned pears. She likes to eat the apples with
hummus.

Today at Rite Aid we got some cups of canned pears with spoons attached.
She took one in her lunch today. She LOVES canned pears!

many people are "burned by pineapple" some more then others...I saw a
sciencey story on it and some people react to the acid and others a chemical
in it and some get a double whammy.

the worst cases can of course die but even some milder cases blister enough
to permanently scar the eater...not cool.

I would imagine people reacting to canned are bothered by the acid and the
metals from the can..a lot of brands coat the inside of the cans now.

ok we are on semantics here so i accept your definition, the allergist told
me there are several definitions of "allergy' and allergic' his definition
is the broader it affects you physically in some way that is negative, this
is not nessarily a hystamine reaction...

if you remember that treatment for that pineapple i sure would spent the
money to try that on a pinapple, they make me uncomfortable and blister me
but i don't get a migraine/swelling from them so it would be worth trying as
i do like them and would love to eat raw.

canned doesn't bother me at all and i can eat a bit of frozen if i don't
overdo it, i can also get fresh and cook it in something and thats fine. i
love pork and pineapple in the slow ocooker. makes the meat extremely
tender and adds a mildly sweet flavor witout being overpowering, can post
what i do if anyone is interested.

Sorry, I don't remember the exact thing. It was posted on the raw vegan
food forum some time ago. Not really sure it works. But they say it does.
I tried to google it but got nowhere.

We outgrew the dairy allergy but can have it twice a week.

As a kid, I would make chocolate pudding so that it was really thick. Have
to do the cooked kind to get that. I don't normally like pudding as is. I
would take a package that serves 4 and cook it down to 2 servings. I would
then cool it and add canned pears. My family thought it was disgusting.

Since we have pear trees, I have tried pears in a variety of recipes.
Mostly I used them like apples, but we just didn't like the end result. I
did mix some with apples and we made what Angela calls papplesauce. It was
okay. But applesauce is better. And before we knew of her wheat allergy, I
made bread with them. It was okay too, but you couldn't really taste the
pears.

Could be. I make brownies about once a year. I just made them. I would
not replace fat though since we don't do a low fat diet.

Did you know that if you have a dog that likes to eat poop, that feeding
them Pineapple will make the poop taste bad...if they are eating another
dogs poop that dog also needs to be fed pineapple...it's the enzyme in
them...or you could sprinkle meat tenderizer on their food...probably
cheaper then pineapple.....
