Its my friends birthday and the cake is pineapple flavour. Ive heard pineapple should be avoided in pregnancy na, so does it apply to the cake also? Bas ek slice khane ka mann tha.
Oh god, actually a slice of cake is totally fine yaar! The whole 'pineapple causes miscarriage' thing is mostly for large amounts of raw fruit. Go enjoy your cake!
I've heard that while raw pineapple should be avoided, a small slice of pineapple cake is generally safe since it's baked. But if you're worried, maybe just have a tiny bite.
A small slice of cake is safe occasionally, but since it has high sugar, keep it in moderation. Also, make sure you're doing your regular blood tests and checking in with your gynac.
I actually had pineapple cake on my birthday during my second trimester and nothing happened. The amount of real pineapple in cakes is very low, so don't worry, a small slice is totally fine.
