01
Why the pipe objects
Pineapple skin and cores are extremely fibrous and can tangle or remain as stubborn solids after grinding.
02
Do this instead
Compost them where accepted or place them in the trash.
03
Already did it?
Stop feeding the disposal. If it hums, jams or drains slowly, switch off power and follow the manufacturer’s safe reset instructions. Never reach inside.
