Linda's Pick-Miracle Berries

If you teach the chemistry of foods, I encourage you to purchase some Miracle berries from Amazon. These berries are really miraculous! After chewing a berry, you can bite directly into a lemon wedge, and it will taste like lemonade! YES! A component of the berry masks some of your taste buds to sweeten the experience. I tried this at a workshop at the Central Region meeting of the ACS in Cincinnati in May 2016. I am not the expert on this activity, but I do encourage you to check it out. WARNING: The berries do not last very long. It is better to buy the tablets. Unfortunately, they are pricey.
