Trying to discover if I've all of a sudden become allergic to pineapple, had some fresh the other day and had an itchy face and minor puffiness around my lips. The pineapple wasn't the only thing I'd eaten in the suspicious timeframe, but it was the most likely candidate. I just had a couple of chunks of frozen pineapple and I'm trying to distract myself so I don't cause an issue, also not sure if frozen would cause a reaction as I have never had any food allergies 🤷‍♀️.

I developed an allergy to fresh pineapple as an adult. Completely unexpected. Mouth ulcers develop almost immediately now from even a single piece. Puffy lips too. I’m not sure if it’s a particular type of pineapple but the acidity is too much for me.

I can still eat pineapple on pizza so I’m guessing tinned pineapple that is baked is okay but I’m reluctant to try it uncooked.

It’s very annoying as I used to love fresh pineapple.

I don’t have any other food allergies.

I feel your pain and confusion 🫂

Hmmm I hate that you and Noshole are saying this ☹️. The inside of my mouth is fine after the frozen, but I'm definitely a little itchy and my lips feel a little puffy. I'm planning on trying it again tomorrow to figure out for sure.
