    Nope, you must just like pineapple. But hey, its A LOT better then how most people crave a Big Mac. Going to the gym, getting cravings for pineapple. Wow, you must be skinny. :D

    Pineapple has enzymes that melt fat away. Keep craving it!

    Lolz thats unique…I love Pineapples…as to your question, you must like the fruit a lot and it might be your body’s way of rewarding itself. You’re lucky its Pineapples u crave…wat if it were something greasy like Burger King or sumthing?
    Also, while you exercise, you lose ur carbs, rather use it up…so the body sometimes asks for what it needs in form of the foods that provide it…maybe you just need that?!

    I don’t know a lot about pineapple, but I have a few possible reasons.

    Pineapple has enzymes that help break down proteins for digestion, as well as ant-inflammatory properties that help speed out post-workout recovery.

    Also, pineapple is high in natural sugars. Your body may be trying to replenish its glycogen stores.
