My mom bought pineapple spears from Sam's Club and i ate about 2. After i ate it i got a weird feeling in my mouth. It was dry and scratchy. It felt like (still feels like) my whole mouth was is burning. This is not my first time eating pineapples, but this is the first time my mouth has acted strangely. Could i be allergic, and what can i do to stop the pain? Any tips would be grateful. Thanks!

i am allergic to pineapple as well..
the symptoms i usually have is my mough and throat feel like theres millions of tiny cuts in it... and it gets dry and hurts...
my mouth will swell, and sometimes, my throat will swell shut...
i have no clue how to stop the pain... so i just don't eat pineapple... which really sucks because i love pineapple
all i can say... stay away from pineapple for now... and if you truly are allergic... make sure that the fruit juices you drink don't have pineapple juice in them (even if it doesnt say so on the front, check the ingredients label)
hope all works out and hope you're not allergic...

im allergic to pineapple too ha i thought i was the only one but yah i always used to have pineapple and one day i just had some and my mouth felt soo weird and my throat hurt and my tongue felt like it had a ton of like cuts and stuff on it so i can't have anythign pineapple now and noow grapefruit and lemon and stuff is like that too its so weird cuz i always used to have it
but if you suck on ice then it like numbs your mouth and it should feel a little better
try to avoid things with a lot of like citric acid

My wife all of a sudden became allergic to pineapple, just like that, she started to break out in lumps. She takes Allegra 180 and it helps.
See you doctor.

Sounds like you have too much bromilane. I don't think you are allergic, you just ate too much pineapple for your body to handle. Calcium should neutralize the acid reaction. The best would be calcium powder, should be available at health stores. Leave pineapple for a time and then try a small piece as see what happens. Hope you feel better soon.
