Cold Stone Creamery Pineapple Tidbits
This pineapple topping is high in histamine because pineapple is a classic liberator.
Fast food is cooked in batches and held warm rather than made when you order it, so it is rarely as fresh as something cooked at home. That matters here because histamine builds up as protein foods sit, which means the same item can affect you differently depending on how long it waited.
This mix-in is pineapple fruit plus pineapple juice and clarified juice from concentrate, so it is pineapple through and through.
-
Pineapple is a liberator — the fruit is a classic histamine liberator, meaning it can prompt your body to release more histamine, and the added pineapple juice runs moderate on the same count.
-
No milder part to lean on — because every component here is pineapple, there is nothing in the mix keeping the level down.
For a fruit-free topping on the same menu, the rainbow sprinkles are a much lower-histamine choice.
