I came across a very interesting article written by Donna McVicar Cannon. It is a comprehensive history, analysis, and safety review of the miracle fruit. It touches on early attempts at spreading it, as well as scientific endeavors to isolate the active glycoprotein, miraculin (the ingredient in our tabs!) It’s a little long, but it really shows how miracle fruit should be as common as an apple or orange, and why.

Everybody knows about what to try after miracle fruit: lemons, limes, grapefruits etc., Any fruit will turn into candy. But what about some unlikely things?

I can’t imagine the first person to think about trying it, but pure vinegar (after a miracle berry) tastes very sweet. Cheap beer tastes like diet soda. A drop of honey spread on any food makes it significantly sweeter, without added calories. Fine Wine tastes like Boone’s Farm. Kamikaze and SoCo-Lime shots are (more) enjoyable! Sour Patch Kids and any sour candy simply taste sweet. Salads, especially tomatoes, become sweeter in general without dressing. Finally Cottage Cheese mixed with fruit tastes like cake filling.

Know any more interesting/tasty combos? Drop them in the comments
