Miracle Frooties, Large Miracle Berry Tablet, 100% Natural Grown Miracle Fruit, Turn Sour Sweet, Change Taste Buds, Flavor Tripping, Tiktok Magic Miraculin, Sugar Free, 20 count (Pack of 2-Yellow

I had seen these and finally broke down and purchased a package, because I was too intrigued. I mainly purchased these so I could throw a flavor tripping party for some friends and family, but I was skeptical of how well they would actually work. To say I was blown away is an understatement. Half a pill works equally as well as a whole one, so make sure you cut these in half. You must absolutely let these dissolve all over your tongue otherwise the effect will be little to none (my dad found that out the hard way when he bit into a lemon). The taste of the pills is pretty icky in my opinion and dry like cardboard, but the results are totally worth it. I've found that the effects of the pill last a bit longer than 30 minutes. These do not alter the taste of foods; dark beer is not going to taste like chocolate (been there, done that), but anything with a sour or a bite to it will instantly become a delectable flavor trip. Lemons, grapefruit (which I hate), and granny smith apples are my top favorites. Sour cream does taste similar to cheesecake only not near as sweet, but interesting. Regular baking cocoa powder becomes tolerable, and apple cider vinegar...well it was unique although I think it tasted better without the pill! Really, you can use a bunch of foods to try rather than just fruits or veggies, but remember that the more bitter something is the better the effect will be. If you are like me and have a hard time eating fruit when it is out of season, this is your answer right here. I just ate a bunch of raspberries and a granny smith apple, and the taste was amazing and almost too sweet. For the price, these are expensive if you plan to purchase on a regular basis. These are definitely a novelty item, but experiment till your hearts desire. Final note: If you eat too much citrus or hot stuff, it will bite you back later. At too many lemons the first go around, and I had a stomachache from hell! Note: I did NOT receive this product for free or a discount. I paid for this product in full with my own money.

Like most people, I was skeptical about trying Frooties. I read a lot of articles about the product and watched many You Tube videos. Curiosity finally got the best of me and I placed my order. My order arrived today. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they included a free Frootie in with my invoice as a thank you. I started by lining up a host of items: Lime wedges, Lemon Wedges, Star Fruit slices, Pure Vitamin C powder (incredibly sour), Plain Greek Yogurt, Sour Cream, Brussels Sprouts, Red Wine Vinegar, Tabasco Sauce & Vodka. I popped my Frootie in my mouth and swished it around for about 3 minutes. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to swallow my saliva so I just held it in my mouth the whole time then spit when I was done. First, the lemon wedge. I took a bite and my eyes lit up. It tasted like a lemon that someone had rolled in powdered sugar. It was sublime. Next I tried the Lime wedge. Again, you taste the lime but it tastes like a lime candy. I started laughing. The Star Fruit tasted almost like a soft apple. It was sweet and had a mild crunch. I ended up eating about 4 slices of that. I mixed the vitamin c powder into a glass of water. When I took a mouthful, I naturally expected a very sour taste. Instead, it tasted like a light lemonade. I was so curious that I actually stuck my finger directly into the Vitamin C powder and tasted it. It tasted like a Pixi Stick. The Greek yogurt tasted tart still, but had a very pleasant sweet taste. What surprised me the most was the sour cream. It tasted like a really creamy frosting...hard to explain but I had 3 teaspoons of it! The Brussels sprouts tasted like chestnuts. I really enjoyed their flavor. The Tabasco sauce almost tasted like a V8 juice EXCEPT the tip of your tongue can still sense the heat. So it was sweet, but the tip of my tongue told me otherwise. I now realize why people shake it onto their tongue in the videos. The red wine vinegar still smelled very much like vinegar as I brought it to my mouth. I had a hard time with that one. But when it hit my tongue, it tasted like a port. It is nothing I would drink, but I had to take a sip out of curiosity. At this point I was starting to worry that my stomach was going to pay me back, but it felt completely fine. I journeyed on and tried a small sip of vodka, which simply tasted like water. There wasn't much of a taste. I imagine if you squeezed lemon juice into it, you would probably have a fantastic "lemon-drop". After my tasting spree I cleaned everything up, got a glass of water and went into the other room. About 1 hour later I found myself going back to see what a Brussels sprout tastes like without the frootie. I bit into one and it still tasted like a roasted chestnut. To check myself I bit a small wedge of lime and it too still tasted like lime candy. The effect was still working after more than one hour. I got online to order another package because I have organized a "Flavor Tripping Party" which is what these parties are called when you pop a frootie and serve all these bizarre foods. If you've got an adventurous spirit, give them a try. I hope my ramblings have helped answer someone's questions and motivated someone else to give them a try.

I decided to try this out, so I bought a pack of these, lemons, limes and a grapefruit. I then met some friends for lunch. 3 ordinary men sat down to eat some fruit. By the time it was over the lemons and limes were gone and 3 children left the table with a state of excitement which was not appropriate for people in their 20's and 30's. The grapefruit was not eaten, because it turns out the miracle berry only turns sour into sweet, it doesn't turn something that normally tastes like diesel fuel mixed with dirty laundry into something you want to eat. Insert turd polishing, pig lipstick metaphor here. Later on we dabbled with strawberries and what was left of our tiny minds was blown out. Strawberries take on the taste of some syrupy candy, and you won't be able to stop eating them. By late afternoon we all had some very strange feelings in our stomachs from eating more fruits than larry craig in an airport bathroom. Its probably not good to eat this much citrus. I would give it 5 stars but its so damned expensive that you feel somewhat silly about the whole thing. I mean its more than $1 per tablet. If you could buy these at the grocery store for a couple of bucks for a big bottle, I would buy them all the time. I guess its fun for a one time experiment. You wont lose your job if you have to pass a drug test as with some of lifes other "experiments". Nor do you have to have a friend to take care of you while you trip out, in fact its more fun to take your whole family on this voyage, my 5 year old thought it was great too. So do yourself a favor, buy them, buy a bunch of fruit and have possibly the healthiest and yet tastiest snack time you can ever imagine. oh, buy yourself some nice 3 ply toilet paper too while you're getting the fruit.

Great product. When I opened the package, I found out that the people who sell them gave me an extra bonus tablet, so I decided to use it that very night. I didn't have too much foods in stock to test them on, but I did what I could. By themselves, the tablets really don't taste like anything. I picked up a sour or sweet note every now and then, but it was bland for the most part. It took around 2-3 minutes to dissolve. I also cleaned my tongue prior to testing. Cantaloupe Melon - Not much of a change. I noticed that it was slightly sweeter, as if someone sprinkled a pinch of sugar onto it. Orange - Probably my favorite. It took cheap oranges that have been sitting around for who knows how long, and turned them into probably the best oranges I've ever had. It didn't have the taste of confectionery sugar like the cantaloupe did, but the sweetness blended in perfectly. Lemon - Another great experience. I actually had two lemons. One was really old and on the verge of drying out, and the other was freshly sent to me from my aunt's lemon trees in California (I live in CT). The old lemon wasn't half bad, but it was a lot more sour than the fresh one. The fresh one was juicy. It tasted like a lemon head with a bit more of a sour note. If I had mixed it with some water, I'm pretty sure it would've been the best lemonade I've ever had. Tomato - Interesting. Like the cantaloupe, it didn't change too much. But I could definitely taste the sweetness. It's probably like two pinches of sugar this time. Blueberries - A runner up. Great flavor. Insanely sweet, and the blueberry flavor intensified by quite a bit. Really enjoyed these. Black Chinese Vinegar - I'd stay away from this one. Just use normal distilled vinegar. The Black Vinegar only had a hint of sour left, and a peculiar sweetness replaced it (not in a good way). I really don't know how to explain it. It was like the sweetness of fermented rice and a cup of sugar. Salt and Vinegar Chips - Takes the edge off of the vinegar, and it adds a slight sweetness. Not bad, but I'd much rather just eat the chips without the tablet.

I have really been enjoying using the frooties instead of the dried miracle berries themselves because they don’t have the husk that Miracle berries do which get stuck in the teeth. Unfortunately I just found out today that Frooties have maltodextrin which cause sugar spikes and gas problems and studies have shown it can lead to Crohn’s disease. I urge this company to change to using Stevia instead, which does not have these problems. I’m still considering what I should do about this. To start I will be looking for other sources of the berry tablets without maltodextrin. I will also call the company to urge them to get rid of the maltodextrin. I encourage you to do the same for your health sake. - Addition November 2024 (from Healthline.com) - “Studies suggest that maltodextrin can change your gut bacteria composition in a way that makes you more susceptible to disease. It may suppress the growth of probiotics in your digestive system, which are important for immune system function.” - The same study suggests that maltodextrin can increase the growth of bacteria such as E. coli, which is associated with autoimmune diseases like Crohn’s disease. - A 2019 review Trusted Source suggests that maltodextrin can impair intestinal mucus release, which can increase the risk of colitis. - the latest studies confirm and add to these concerns There are other miracle berries sold on Amazon that do not have Maltodextrin, like “mberry Miracle Berry Tablets” which do not have that dangerous ingredient. I have switched to these mberries today.. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001LXYA5Q/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1? I would hold the Frooties tablets in mouth for 3 minutes and there was always a great sweetening effect…no time, no dime! It has worked for everyone I shared them with. If you want less sweet effect you can hold the berries just for a minute, or if time is short. And I cut the Frooties berries in half and they still worked at half the cost, if held for one to 3 minutes on tongue. Will be getting my first order of this other brand, the “mberry” in this week, but I’m thinking they should work the same money saving way when using them halved - I will add a comment to the contrary here if they don’t. I always carry them when I go out, and I’ve never have to have a Coke at a restaurant that is made from the bottom of the dispenser barrel so they’re barely sweet!

For reference, I bought this from Funky Food Shop and it was fulfilled by Amazon. Shipping The 2 boxes arrived in a single bubble mailer within a week. The boxes weren't perfect in that they looked like something heavier was sitting on the envelope they were in during the shipping process. I've only opened one box so far, but in that box, all the tablets were intact. Packaging Cardboard/paperboard boxes contained an airtight pouch. Inside the pouch were the tablets in foil and plastic container/sheet. It resembled how cough medicine pills were packaged. Each pill was separated from each other, so you don't have to use them all at once. Perforated edges allow you to give give or take however many you want to go without breaking out the scissors, while maintaining freshness. The Tablets about 3/8 in. or .95cm wide about 6/8 in. or 1.91cm long ThinkGeek lists the dimensions on their product page, but not the weight. While their tablets are circular, these ones are more oval-shaped. The shape is almost like a diamond shape with rounded edges. Breaking them for the regular dosage may result in uneven pieces sometimes and a slight chance of small pieces breaking off the edges. The edges aren't as thick - that's why. The tablets are almost like the circular ones, but with wings. When received, they still had about 19 months left to use. Using Them I tried it with some friends at a buffet - a good place if you don't want to buy and prep all the food yourself. The buffet was researched to see if they had food that would supposedly be affected too. None of us had really been there before though, so we don't know what the usual taste/quality of the food is. Using the whole tablet (a double dose), the tablets only lasted our small group about 20 minutes before we had to take another one. We made made sure to swirl it around your tongue for a minute, making sure to coat all the taste buds too. 1/2 a tablet lasted about the same, maybe 5 minutes shorter. I recommend taking half tablets to make the supply last longer. We all agreed lemons had the most noticeably different taste. They really did taste like lemonade. I recommend having a lot of them for 2 reasons. 1) People will go through a good amount 2) They can be used to tell if you're taste buds are still affected. Kind of like a control variable. One other person and I had lemonade. With the altered tasted buds, it tasted the same to me, but sour to the other person. We determined we had different taste buds. In total, the group had about 4 different tasted buds. For example, ketchup tasted either the same, sour, sweet, or spicy, depending on the person. I'll start listing other food I had along with their results and other results if available. Taste affected: Yes: Strawberries - sweeter to everyone in our group Fajita Chicken - not (kinda) spicy like it usually is to me Apple Pie - not sweet at all to us, kind of bland BBQ - slightly sweeter to me, some kinds not spicy Raisins - different taste, not sure how to describe Kind of: Radishes - not as bitter to me Pickles - maybe a little sweeter. I'm not sure if they were dill or sweet, though. Olives - I usually don't like olives, they didn't taste as bad, but still not good Red and White Vinegar - didn't taste like apple juice to anyone like it's supposedly supposed to, some very slight apple flavor to me, it still kind of burns your throat Jalepeños - not to me, but not as spicy to someone else No: Raw Carrots Tomatoes Pineapple Watermelon If going to a buffet, you can make some small cards with a list of food that should/might taste different as a guide, cheat sheet, or checklist. Conclusion: They can be considered expensive. While they are about $0.70 a serving, they last about 15-20 minutes. It's interesting, but not amazing (except the lemons). It can differ from person-to-person. It's better to do this with friends/family. The actual berry might last longer, but this is a much cheaper alternative.

Maybe these tablets work better for some people than for others. I've read some opinions online from people who said they didn't work for them, but they work just fine for me. Only on foods that are sour or tart, though; these tablets really do make them sweet! After coating my tongue with the pill the first time, I ate a lemon and it tasted like lemon candy. So far, I've found they work very well with whole lemons, lemon juice mixed with water, granny smith apples, yellow grapefruit, and salad with a simple vinegar and oil dressing (makes the dressing sweet without adding sugar). They're okay with limes - makes them palatable but not quite as delicious as the lemons. Red grapefruit just becomes too sweet, though; I didn't like the effect with that fruit at all. With bland foods the tablets didn't make a difference. They only seem to work on sour or tart foods. But hey, if you're on a low-carb diet and want to minimize or avoid artificial sweeteners, this is one way to do it. Also, you really can cut these big tablets in half and just use half at a time. That's what I've been doing and it's been working just well. Oh, and as for the "cardboard" taste, yeah, the tablets aren't tasty. Though I didn't get nauseous or anything from it, either. It's just a bland taste, somewhat like cardboard, but what really matters is how it makes sour food taste afterward. I personally have no problem taking them.

We tried these as part of our Christmas celebration and the consensus was that they were a lot of fun! We had four adults and two children who each had one tablet. The results were incredible. The children were less impressed than the adults but did still think it was fun to eat a lemon without wincing. The adults had a blast trying different foods and trying to describe the tastes. We all agreed that grapefruit was magically not only edible when we all hated it before, but actually delicious. The limes gave us all pause as they seemed to still pack a bit of a punch. Raspberries tasted like candy, strawberries were the perfect balance of sweet and fruity, and tomatoes...well we all gaged, especially the kids, but if you’ve ever thought it’d be a fun experience to stuff a cherry tomato full of sugar and then bite into it, you’re in for a treat. I think this’ll turn into a yearly thing, if not more often. The effect lasted about 30-40 minutes for each of us and that was plenty of time to try lots of foods and drinks. My only caution is that if you try something that’s already sweet like a grape, be ready for the sweetest thing you’ve ever put in your mouth.
