- That's crazy! - (laughs) What?
- This feels like this would be a Willy Wonka product,
The Miracle Berry.
- Are these legal?
- (PvF) Have you guys heard of the Miracle Fruit,
Miracle Berry, or Magic Berry?
- Um, no. - No.
- No, I haven't heard of either. - No.
- Oh my God, I've always wanted to do this.
- I have no idea what that is.
- Miracle Berry, what kind of miracle is it gonna perform today?
- I don't know.
- (PvF) But first, I'd like you to sample some food items
and you're gonna tell me what they taste like, okay?
- Okay. - Great.
Whoa, look at this charcuterie. - Oh my gosh.
- So what do you think the Miracle Berry is though?
I still don't get the concept just yet.
- (PvF) So first we're gonna try the lemons and limes.
- I will eat this whole thing right now, I love eating lemons.
- No for real, have you ever put salt on 'em?
- Oh my God, yes! - You know what I'm talking about?
- You're the only other person who says that actually.
Like, I say that to other people and they call me crazy.
- Oh!
- Those are tart.
- (PvF) Next up, we have some sour candy.
- Cheers!
- Mmm.
- Mmm, yeah.
- First they're sour. (laughs) - (both) Then they're sweet.
(both laugh)
- (PvF) Take a little sip of vinegar.
- No, aw man.
(both laugh)
- We both just look at each other.
I have never sipped balsamic vinegar. (laughs)
(Ryan coughs) - Hate it.
- Whoa.
- That was really strong.
(Ted coughs)
- It makes you do like the Harlem Shake.
(Jeremiah laughs)
- I thought maybe it was gonna complement the Sour Patch Kids
but I was wrong! (coughs)
Why did you make us do that?
- (PvF) Alright, let's move on to the cream cheese.
- Cream cheese?
- A delicate, tiny, baby spoon.
- Not so delicate taste.
- I like cream cheese.
- This is nice, this is a nice palate cleanser.
- (PvF) Next up we have some bitter chocolate.
- Yeah, that's bitter. Ew!
- I love this, oh hold on, it's bitter.
- Still better than the vinegar.
- That's like really bad, and I love chocolate,
so you guys better not ruin chocolate for me.
- Yeah man.
- Have you had like the raw cacao?
- This is what it tastes like? - This is what it tastes like.
- Oh.
- (PvF) Little bite of the pickle.
- I hate pickles. - Yeah.
- Oh God, juicy.
- Oh wow, that's a juicy pickle. (laughs)
- (PvF) And then a salt and vinegar chip.
- Aw yes.
- I couldn't eat like a whole bag, you know,
but like a nice handful. - Exactly.
- (PvF) Are you guys ready to try the Miracle Berry?
- Yeah! - I mean after I've tried
like a bunch of random things.
- There's a pattern for this. - Yes we are, there is.
- 'Cause everything kinda has that flavor, like the vinegar.
I don't know, I'm getting a lot of sour and bitter,
so I don't know what we're gonna do it.
- (PvF) Miracle Berries.
- (Ryan) Work it.
- (Izzy) Right, live that, love it.
- (PvF) This berry, when eaten, causes anything sour,
tart, pickled, fermented or acidic to taste sweet.
- Whoa!
- (PvF) The berry contains glycoproteins
which bind to your taste bud receptors and block anything sour,
creating a truly unique experience.
- Is it safe?
- I feel like that's defying science right now.
- Yeah, right? - That doesn't even sound true.
- Are you tricking my brain? - Yeah!
- (PvF) Are you guys excited to try this?
- Yeah. - Yeah!
- I'm kinda confused on like how it's gonna work.
- I don't believe it, I'm not sold.
- It's like a cranberry. - Yeah.
- Like the most bland dried fruit.
- I don't know what to expect right now.
- (PvF) Alright, we're gonna start with a lemon.
Let's both grab a lemon. - Okay.
- Okay, cheers again. - Cheers!
- It does!
- It's sweet!
- It's like there's sugar on it.
- That's crazy! - (laughs) What?
- It tastes like lemon candy! - That's so weird!
- It tastes like a candy lemon.
- It's really good.
- I did not think it was gonna work that well.
- I didn't either.
- The hell?
- Ooh, that's delicious! (Ryan laughs)
- Yeah bro, I feel like a toddler right now.
I'm like ecstatic!
- (PvF) Would you like to try the Sour Patch Kids next?
- Yep!
- Yeah wait, is this just gonna be just sweet now?
- This is the one I'm the most curious about,
'cause they're already kinda sweet.
- It's just sweet!
- It's like it's gone, it's completely gone.
- It's like it's more, it's just more.
- Yeah, it's a Sweet Patch Kid. - Whoa, sweet.
- First they're sweet, then they're sweet.
- It's just sweet. - Just sweet.
It's like there's just sugar on the outside.
- I took like a teaspoon of sugar in my mouth.
- (PvF) Next up, we have balsamic vinegar.
- Okay, this is actually, I'm a little terrified.
'Cause I had the babiest sip
and my mouth was like I hate all of this.
- Cheers part two. - Cheers, my man.
- Ah! (coughs)
- (coughs) It's still not great.
- Wow, that wasn't as bad at all.
- It's not as bad, I'm, no gas, bro.
- No, it's sweet, but it's like if you did teriyaki sauce.
- Are you liking that? - Yeah!
- Whoa! - It's like sweet!
- Yeah bro, like, you could smell it, but you don't taste it.
- Yeah.
- Like you feel the burn, but it tastes good.
- Even if it's sweet, it's still sweet acid.
- Bro, I'm like yeah, I just gotta keep looking at these like...
Are these legal? (laughs)
- (PvF) Alright, next up we have that cream cheese.
- (Jay) I wonder what it's gonna do with this?
- (Jeremiah) I was gonna say, this one would be an interesting one.
- (Jay) Yeah.
- This one, I'd be definitely curious about.
Whoa, could just like eat that.
- This cream cheese is now cheese cake.
- Yeah, I was like, this is... - That is weird.
- My brain is confused.
- That's amazing. - That's not allowed.
- I kinda get the same with this though.
- Just a little bit. - Like a little bit.
- It's the creaminess.
- I'm like indifferent for that one.
- (PvF) Next up, we've got our very bitter chocolate.
- (Izzy) Right, I forgot about her. - (Ryan) Aw yes!
- I'm excited for this one. - Yeah.
- I wonder if it's gonna taste like sweeter.
- It's still bitter, but that beginning feeling
of not as bad, is way longer lasting.
- He knows his stuff.
- Mmm, wow.
- Now it's just chocolate.
- Okay, it tastes now like dark chocolate,
not like bitter chocolate.
- It's almost like just a sweet version of a dark chocolate.
- I'm so glad you didn't ruin chocolate for me.
- (PvF) So using this as a food additive
was banned in 1974 by the FDA,
but in very questionable circumstances
that were potentially influenced by competitive commercial interests.
- It would knock off sugar.
Like it would kill sugar, you know sugar's in everything, bro.
- (PvF) This is a full-on conspiracy. - Some conspiracy.
- (PvF) We are at your favorite. The pickles!
- (both) Ooh!
- Bro.
- Mmm, mm-mm!
- It doesn't hit as hard. - Yeah.
- It's just kinda like... - It's like more sweet!
- That's so ah ah!
- It's immediately sweet.
- It tastes sweet, so I'm like really confused.
- This would just kill off all of the big companies.
- To me, it just tastes like you put sugar on it.
- No for real, like, we need to be watching like...
(Jeremiah laughs) (laughs) For real.
- Yeah, I don't know if we should upload this.
- Yeah bro, yeah, I might have
a security guard outside my house tonight.
Like just... - Yeah.
- (PvF) And then finally, we have our salt and vinegar chips.
- Okay. - I'm, this is awesome.
Bro, what?
- Now that's a fun surprise.
- It just cuts the harshness out.
- But this one just like, it changed the whole chip.
- It tastes like sour cream and onion.
- Oh my God.
It's like, you have to really cherish this moment right now.
- How weird. - Truly a miracle.
- I am sold, I am a believer.
Now this will make you anti-government, like yo.
- This feels like this would be a Willy Wonka product,
the Miracle Berry. - Oh, 100%.

but go try it.
