Product Review: Miracle Berry Tablets Make Grapefruit Taste Like Sweet Candy - Doc - 03-22-2009
'Picked up some Miracle Berry tablets from ThinkGeek awhile ago with a coupon.
I'd read about them a few times, but hadn't tried them.
I was initially a little disappointed that the tablets seem stale, but the stuff really works!
One half a tablet dissolved on my tongue made Grapefruit taste like a grapefruity strawberry hard-candy.
Oranges provided a taste-sensation not unlike congealed corn syrup.
Very cool and trippy!
I'm going to have to try this with hot peppers and Tabasco!

Lots left, but when I'm out I'm gonna restock. 'Can't wait to pull some out at a party!

Didn't I see this on some crime show? The victim drank bleach and thought it tasted like some juice?

anyone know what broccoli tastes like after eating one? I hate the stuff, but my wife eats it all the time.

I'm trying to figure out why you'd want to change the taste of grapefruit.

Because some of us think grapefruit tastes gross? And, yes, I've tasted grapefruit fresh off the tree in Florida - the stuff grapefruit lovers thought was prime. Blech.
