How the form changes the number: preparation is the real variable across this family. Boiling leaches a meaningful share of soluble oxalate into the cooking water โ€” commonly 30-50% for plant foods โ€” while raw and dry-heat forms keep essentially all of it, so the same base food can land in different brackets depending on how it is cooked. This page tracks Pineapple raw at 1 mg per serving, at the low end of the family. Related forms in this family: Pineapple dried (2 mg), Preserved w/out sugar Pineapple (2 mg).
