This is what happens when your co-worker orders miracle fruit
Miracle fruit is a small red berry that masks the sour taste buds, making lemons and limes taste sweet like candy. Andre ordered a bunch online and so we pulled together a collection the bitterest and sourest foods we could find at the nearby market.
Verdict: if you have the chance to try miracle fruit with lemons or limes, do it. The effect is amazing, like sparkling sweet explosions of lemon and lime flavor. Grapefruit and tomatoes were also quite a bit sweeter. Guinness stout kind of tasted like beer juice. Bitter 99% cacao chocolate tasted like bitter 99% cacao chocolate.
I was hoping you would blog this!
I think the Guinness had kind of a sweet mint mouthwash flavor to it after the miracle fruit. The lime was my favorite, though.
