FINALLY! Our MBerry video, that we promised you a few weeks
back, is now available on our YouTube Channel! Click right HERE to check it
out.
We had a heck of a time finishing this video. Where should I
start? Well, when we finished recording the video, it ended up being just shy
of an hour long. Which means that the file was very large! My MacBook Pro
almost couldn’t import the video from the camera because of the size alone.
Everything went wrong…my mac kept freezing during the import, the file was too
large to send through DropBox, my wireless transfer program kept getting an
error…everything, other than actually uploading the video, kept preventing us
from releasing this video to you guys! But, it finally happened. I finally
managed to import the video and got it to Ashley just in the nick of time.
Now, let’s talk about the actual video! I’ve mentioned
before that Ashley and I have been dying to try MBerry for a while now and
thanks to my lovely FiancĆ©, she got us a pack of MBerries! “What is MBerry,
Adryan?” That’s a great question! MBerry, short for Miracle Berry, or by its
scientific name, Synsepalum Dulcificum, is a small red fruit that turns sour
flavors…sweet. Crazy…I know. This MBerry contains Miraculin, a glycoprotein
found in the fruit that coats the taste buds on your tongue and alters how your
mind perceives taste. It was weird and unexpected, but cool at the same time.

Here’s how it works. Because of the risk of the fruit
rotting during shipping we got the pill form, which is just as good as eating
the actual fruit. According to the package, you take one pill and let it
dissolve on your tongue, which takes about five minutes, then start eating.
Below I have listed for you guys what Ashley and I ate and
what it tasted like after we ate the MBerry.
-Tomatoes tasted like sugary tomatoes. It was oddly
delicious.
-Granny smith apples tasted like a very sugary caramel
apple.
-Grape fruit (our favorite) tasted as if you were to put
sugar on top of your grapefruit for breakfast.
-Lemons tasted like lemonade but with not enough sugar. (it
was still really sour)
-Salt and vinegar chips tasted like a sugar cookie
-Sour cream tasted like cake filling
-Blue cheese…was gross.
-Dill pickles tasted like sweet pickles
-Mustard tasted like honey mustard
-Balsamic vinegar was sweet but still burned
-JalapeƱo…well…it was too hot to taste anything
It was really fun! I would totally do it again and totally recommend
you trying it out for yourself. Visit www.MBerry.us to purchase your own pack
of MBerry tablets and make a party out of it. Oh, I forgot to mention, on the
inside of the package, they give you a card with suggestions of types of food
you should eat with the MBerry. I highly recommend tomatoes, apples, grape
fruit and salt and vinegar. You won’t be disappointed.
Your hint for the next Mitten Kidz video is…DIY.
