For those of you who didn't see the video of us gagging on the Durian fruit:

For those of you who did.... Wish we would have had some of these berries to eat first! XD

Woah, those things look weird. I only read a big but that's pretty cool stuff.
And yeah, it was pretty funny watching you guys eat those things haha.

Well this "miracle fruit" is supposed to deaden all your taste buds except the ones that know what sweet things taste like, so everything tastes like sweet things.

Here's a link to buy them, in case anyone's interested in a "taste bud tripping" party XD

Imagine buying a larger abundance of land and then planting those suckers. You'd make some big $$ with something such as that. I want to try some of those suckers now. =)

One of my co-workers is a botanist. I'm going to see what he knows about them and what it would take to grow them.

Lmao Marcel!

Both you and Falco look so similar o.O

Anyway, something I know I won't have to try now =D. I wonder if I can make my brother have a test of it. Hmm

Dang... I had no idea they looked that gross. I had them in dried form in Thailand and they were actually pretty decent... but I don't know if I would have eaten them if I knew they looked like that. :P
