Hello lybrate-user, Having diabetes does not mean that one becomes cursed not to eat sweets as the prevalent misconception in society. With diabetes one needs to be careful about how many carbohydrates he/she is eating in a day. Ask your doctor how many carbohydrates can you consume in a day and then whenever you eat just tally that with the total and do not exceed that, simple. So yes, eating the pineapples should not harm you as long as you limit their quantity according to your daily carbohydrate limits. Have a happy and sweet life.
