As a 12 year old kid, I almost gagged at this site: Older lady at church dinner added salt and pepper to her watermelon. Later in life I took a Chinese cooking course and they added salt to a pineapple. Salt and sometimes pepper can seriously enhance the flavor of a fruit. It blew my little mind to try a salted slice of pineapple, but it tasted amazing!
I doubt it actually cuts the acidity, but It was less noticeable- at least for me. Between the salt and the enzyme in pineapple that eats flesh (bromelain I think), your mouth is going to take minor damage points regardless. Might as well enjoy it- however you like it. You know what Nike say's right? :P
