I knew this. But I believe you can use canned pineapple.

I was able to work out the correct answer. I knew the what, and now I know the why.

Pineapple does not like my husband's digestive system, so I avoid using it. He does remember liking the taste of fresh pineapple back when he could eat it.

I knew this too and yes Len it's OK as long as it's canned.

I wonder if heating up the pineapple for canning disables the enzyme.

I knew this. Well not the exact name, but I knew that fresh pineapple enzymes can digest protein.
