I made the mistake of eating too much dried pineapple (core intact) and had the worst blowout. Anyone else had that experience? I think the core part caused a blockage then it just made a huge mess when I woke up one day. Thank goodness for waterproof mattress covers!

I eat pineapple slices, drink pineapple juice with no trouble. But do wear a Hollister bag retention belt, just in case my stoma goes "postal" on me.

Last time I eat pineapple I ended up in hospital a for 1 week they were just thinking about taking for me down for surgery when blockage started to clear, I know lots are lucky and can eat it problem free but never again for me

Yep,
I can empathise on the dried pineapple core - its the core, that is the worst bit.
Nowadays I can eat small amounts of fresh pineapple when cooked and well chewed - But at best, Pineaple 'eats' us [literally] as we eat it! I do so LUV the juice though! And Pineapple bittars is good too - a bit of rearety - but I have enjoyed it.
TG for 'travel bags' / mattress covers !
