“Do we have any pineapple at home?” is our safe word for social situations when one of us needs a reason to leave a situation or change the conversation because they’re uncomfortable. I detest pineapple.

You must really dislike it - I'd have trouble not laughing if someone asked me this.

What if they go "sure, I'll get you some"?

“Oh no, I want to bake a pineapple upside down cake later, I’m not hungry now.”
