Is pinapple acidic?
Just what I asked. Does pinapple (fresh or canned) have a high or relatively high acidic value?
Answers:
No it is not a high acidic fruit. It is considered mildly acidic. People tend to think it is because fresh pineapple contains a digestive enzyme called bromelain that breaks down the protein in products such as milk, gelatin, and meat, so products, such as cottage cheese, yogurt, and gelatin based foods, may become watery when fresh pineapple is added. The bromelain is broken down when heated so canned or boiled pineapple can be used with these products without causing a problem.
