Miracle Fruit and Flavor-Tripping Parties
The New York Times reported on a special west-African berry called “miracle fruit” that makes everything sweet in your mouth. Once you eat the berry, everything you taste for about an hour afterwards will taste sweet. A slice of lemon tastes like a pixie stick and a shot of beer tastes like chocolate. It sounds like something out of Willy Wonka!
Apparently, “Flavor Tripping Parties” have become somewhat trendy in New York and San Francisco. Oh, and I’m sure you’re not surprised that there’s a blog about the parties too. Flavor tripping is all about “miracle fruit parties and sundry grub fests.”
Personally, I’d love to try one of these little miracle fruits out for myself. I guess I’ll have to look them a party next time I’m in NYC or SF. Or, I could buy berries from the Miracle Fruit Man and take the plunge on my own. Hmmm…
Check out the New York Times article. It even has a video to watch one of the parties in action. Very cool!
