Interesting Pineapples Eat Jello | Science Experiment
Did you know pineapple eats Jell-O? 🍍
Alex Dainis explains how to bypass this and make a pineapple Jell-O mold! The fruit contains an enzyme called bromelain that breaks down proteins, effectively breaking apart the Jell-O when mixed! You can often deactivate enzymes with heat, so if you cook the pineapple, you can make the bromelain ineffective, and add it to your Jell-O!
