The miracle fruit is a small red berry which looks similar to a red coffee bean.It has a chemical in it called miraculin which causes the taste buds to make sour foods taste sweet.This means you can eat a lemon or a lime like an orange and they will taste sweet.They also change the taste of many other foods and are a great talking point for something different.They can also be a good food for diabetics who still crave sweet foods and can use the berries to make bland foods sweeter.
