This sarcastic conversation happened more than 10 years ago.
me: so… is it true that pineapples are bad for pregnancy?
ob-gyn: huh?
me: well, they said it’s a “cooling” fruit, so should not eat…
ob-gyn: well… have you ever heard when someone wants to abort a child, they just go eat tonnes of pineapples to do the job?
me: …
ob-gyn: not too say cannot eat, but everything must be in moderation… too much of anything, including pineapples will be not good…
It’s true. I’ve learnt that having too much of anything could never be good to you. It somehow leads to this desire of never being satisfied and always yearning for more. There will never be contentment.
So listen to the wisdom of Oscar Wilde, “Everything in moderation, including moderation.”
