Is this a trick question? I've tried to root the top in the past, but
it hasn't worked for me.

Meat tenderizer. There's an enzyme in them, this is the main ingredient in
"accent:" meat tenderizer. It's why the corners of your mouth can get a
little sore if you eat a lot of fresh pineapple.


Yeah, it's eating you back!

Are some people immune? I've never had that problem (not even a
tingle) and I've eaten more than my fair share at times.
