Yeah I just finished reading about this on Yahoo...really weird stuff, I would love to try it sometime if the opportunity arises. I wonder how long it will take for them to find something wrong with eating the fruit...probably leads to cancer of some kind.

 

[vcoheda]

cool.

 

[malldian]

Thats incredible! I really want to try that.

Maybe it makes Sennheisers sound like Grados.

EDIT: So far everyone that has viewed this thread has posted in it.

Too bad the supplier suspended sales - I was ready to order some. Bookmarked it, though.

Can it turn urine into sweet ambrosia?

 

[PYROphonez]

This sounds awesome.

 

[krmathis]

Really cool. Would be fun to try one some day...

Heh, you laugh, but this fruit may be useful for survival situations when you may need to consume something that tastes absolutely awful.

Heard about this a while ago, it contains a chemical similar to capsaicin that locks up the taste buds, but instead of everything tasting like ouch, everything tastes sweet.

Hey, is there anyway to convince Jude to order these next time there's a canjam?

I've had this before, but in powder form. The powdered form tastes very strange, by itself, but these go great with tomatoes. Other foods, I'm not sure.. I think it only works well with sour/bitter things.

Fox news had this guy on. Both of the members that tried it felt it was a scam. $90 for 30 berries hey. Pot growers may want to consider a change of crop.
