    Any substitution suggestions for the pineapple? I'm allergic to it and this sounds interesting. - 6/17/12

    Sorry, no I don't know what is a good substitute. My suggestion is just to try some different combinations until you find one that works for you.

    What can I substitute for bananas? I'm allergic to them, cantalope and honey dew melon. Thanks! - 2/29/12

    I haven't tried it with anything else, but I would think that extra strawberries or pineapple would work, or adding another fruit like blueberries, apples, or maybe kiwi would be good.
