Miracle Fruit Tablets

Why is this no longer available? I really wanted to give it to someone as a Christmas present! Can't you bring it back?

Don't try onions!!!! Not a happy ending.

I got these mind boggling little tablets in my stocking and leaving my presents I tested them out immediately. First I bit into a lemon, which was a unique flavour in itself, it was like orange juice mixed with pineapple. Next was HP sauce, tomato ketchup and salt and vinegar crisps. The HP sauce was like sweet and sour sauce, tomato ketchup was like sweet Marmite and the crisps were a strange ordeal, like eating crisps and having orange juice in your mouth at the same time. And finally firebox, I did try out the pineapple, and wow it was cringe worthily sweet, I was wincing and the pineapple was so sweet it was almost sour. Anyway, this is a truly awesome product, and after many laughs with my blind folded brother I will soon be restocking. Now where's my kudos for reviewing the pineapple! : )

This thing is amazing!! It makes things tastier. Lemons taste like lemon sherbet. Dark chocolate tastes like normal chocolate. Another thing is it lasts about half an hour. All in all these are worth every penny and I've only had one tablet!!!!

These are great and definitely worth a try! After placing one of the tablets on my tongue I realised that even their own taste was quite pleasant (kind of like a multi-vitamin) after a few minutes of rolling it around my mouth and tongue (to maximise it's effectiveness) it has all gone, but the magic lived on! I proceeded to my cupboards to try the effect on some everyday condiments, Vinegar, Soy sauce, Jif lemon, all relatively sweet considering their usual face-wrinkling qualities (although I wouldn't recommend too much of either as it can still play havoc with you stomach). Then my little brother presented the ultimate test for these bitterness converting capsules, the most bitter substance known to most, EARWAX! I'll spare you the imagery, however upon tasting, NOTHING! No bitter after-taste, no cringing, no gagging! These tablets are little Miracles to the taste buds.

The tablet itself at first tastes like some sort of freeze dried berry (well I suppose it pretty much is), but then as you continue to let it dissolve on your tongue, (this may just be me) a sort of creamy taste seems to come from the tablet. As soon as it had dissolved fully I went over to the assortment of taste options I had laid out for myself. First up, lemon, as I first bit into it there was a hint of the acidic element that every lemon carries, but as soon as the juices came into contact with my tongue it was the detonation that caused an implosion and explosion at the same time of euphoric sugary goodness. Its weird though, because the taste it creates isn't something that any other food stuff seems to have, the sweetness is in its own way, unique. Usually, when you try some sort of food, it reminds you of some other similar food you have had before. But wow! Not with the help of the tablets plus a lemon, they made the lemon sweet, but not too sweet that it was sickly, it was somehow just right. Taste experiences and there similarities; Orange juice tastes much sweeter and smoother, somewhat like pineapple juice. Honey (Yes, I did decide to try making something already sweet much, much sweeter) tastes more like maple syrup. HP Sauce (Brown Sauce) tastes a lot more like sugary ketchup. Apples taste more like toffee apples. Savory things don't seem to be altered by the tablets, I think its mainly due it mainly working with acidic like flavors. One thing to remember though, even though the tablets make shoving a couple of lemons down your throat and washing it down with vinegar much more of a blissful leisure activity than a form of torture, you are still eating two lemons and drinking a quarter of a pint of vinegar. So, you might not notice the acid in that but your stomach does and doesn't let you forget about it, I learned that the hard way. . . . It was utterly worth it though. All in all another great buy from Firefox, these beauties can solve you sugar cravings and be a great laugh. I'm sure I'll be restocking shortly!

Gave one to a friend and both agreed the tablets taste like cardboard but apart from that there amazing. Orange juice is lovely and lemon juice is like lemonade. A good buy once again from firebox.

Wow! the first product ive bought from firebox and was it impressive, does what it says on the tin.

These things are pretty awesome. Had an experiment with a couple of different things, but to me they don't really taste like anything different, just really, really sweet. Fizzy energy drinks, like Relentless are great with these! I also thought chilli powder was quite nice, but it's still hot once you've swallowed it!
