Pineapple has ?meat-tenderizing? properties. And these are what cause the fruit to trigger allergic reactions. Mostly these reactions would resolve within a few hours by themselves. The resin in the pineapple skin may cause an itchy rash in some people (as does the mango). Gloves are recommended for those prone to rashes while handling and skinning the fresh fruit.
