The burn analog to asparagus pee.
DANG!
Look at me! I am a dumb rich beeotch!

You might want to avoid pineapple juice as well. I’ve heard that people who work in the juice factories lose their fingerprints.
I worked for several years at a small restaurant, pulling duty as a waitress, cook, and dish washer. Eventually, my hands began to burn and itch like crazy and the only thing I could connect it to was the Ivory dish detergent we were using.
