| Miracle Berries |
I realize that "miracle berry" kind of sounds like
it might be similar to say a "special brownie" but I promise (mostly
for my mother's sake) that it's not. I
mean, you can buy these miracle berry tablets on Amazon so it's obviously not that sketchy, right?
 |
| The tablets |
It's an actual berry from West Africa (I think?) that when
eaten, binds to and blocks your tongue's sour/bitter receptors so nothing
tastes sour anymore. So all you taste is
the sweet factor and basically it makes everything seem way sweeter than
normal.
A couple of my friends bought a bunch of these tablets and
had a miracle berry party where everyone took one and then just indulged in a
ton of different fruits and other random food like cheese and hamburger meat
with barbecue sauce. A few people even tried balsamic vinegar.

| The lovely setup of fruits and other food |
You can't just chew the tablet. You have to move it all
around your tongue and let it slowly dissolve.
After it dissolves, it's effective immediately so you can just start
stuffing your face for the next 20-30 minutes until it wears off.

| The beginnings of the taste testing |
It was incredibly fascinating and everyone should buy some
of these to try at least once. All of
the fruit tasted a million times better than it already does. I think oranges and kiwis were my favorite
with this miracle berry effect. Soo good
and soo sweet. You can straight up bite
into a slice of lemon and it just tastes like a really good batch of
lemonade. No unattractive puckering of
the lips -- just pure deliciousness in your mouth! All of the acidic fruit did still rip my
tongue up a bit, so don't go too crazy with the lemons because you'll probably
regret it later.
