I still have what many people call my commonwealth influence and so I have a lot of names for things that people don't understand. Chips instead of french fries, shrimp (prawn) on the barbie, etc. Some friends asked if I wanted to see the Barbie movie and I jokingly asked if they'd serve shrimp instead of popcorn, and their utter confusion sent the message clear they didn't get it. Yup, I'm the weird one :(
That said, by now my vocabulary is somewhat hybridized.
Related to this, one of the weirdest things I do is how I like many of my foods. People are weirded out because I like... my toast to be soft... my ice cream to be half melted... my steak to be mooing (back when I active partook in that; I don't really anymore)... my tootsie pops to be eaten in one bite... my cereal poured after my milk... my pizza with pineapple on it... my milk with ice in it... etc.
I also like my ice cream to be soup lol! Pineapple on pizza is okay, but I can only have small amounts of pineapple. The rest are odd, but at least you know what you like!

Allergy or something else?
It just irritates my mouth. May be oral allergy or just a reaction to the enzymes in the pineapple. It isn't as bad as my reaction to wine and vinegar though, so I have to see more specialists to figure that out lol.

That last paragraph made irrationally angry lol.
