Last night I got decadent and started doing some of those scallops and

pineapple wrapped in bacon thingies. Cut up a fresh pineapple, started

wrapping everything up in some excellent nitrate-free bacon from the farm.

Put 'em all in the fridge for about half an hour until I was ready for

them.

Took them out, and I no longer had strips of bacon. I had strips of

meat mush.

So there you have it - fresh pineapple juice completely disintegrates real

bacon. Tasted good anyway, though. Tee HEE!

Rad the NT sidebar on Pineapple Chutney; the enzyme in pineapple is what causes

this reaction !

Ach, I went and read the sidebar as soon as I saw your note ... okay, so it

breaks down protein. But sheesh, 30 minutes??? *snort* ... maybe I

should eat pineapple every time I eat a steak.

It WAS impressive.

My grandmother always took pineapple bromelaine tablets to help with

digestion, and got us to using them also. They do seem to help.
