PINEAPPLE BURNS MY TONGUE

Opened the fridge at noon and saw some cubes of yellow goodness wrapped up in cling wrap. So I naturally thought they were mangoes because a few days back my dad sliced up a mango for me. Stole a bite and omg they were actually pineapples!

But they were not sour or anything. It was actually pretty nice and sweet so I took another plate and emptied half of the cubes onto my plate. Was enjoying my pineapples while YouTubing but after finishing my serving, I put my plate aside....

And my tongue started feeling prickly. It's super uncomfortable T_T. And since pineapples were the last thing I ate, I googled pineapples and prickly. And there were lots of similar experiences. Thank god I'm not the only one.

So today I learnt that pineapple contains a kind of enzyme, Bromelain, that digest protein. It is a kind of meat tenderizer. And it is kind of digesting my tongue!? Yuck gross.

One more takeaway from today's pineapple eating session is that I should never eat pineapple fresh anymore.

HAHAHA.
