Im a Tasmanian Aboriginal, and the pepper berries you have on your list here has been used for millennia by my people to flavour our foods. I often go up into the alpine regions and harvest a bunch and dry them out to substitute black pepper. They are incredible on fried eggs, i also use them with the leaves and other assorted native berries to stuff my mutton bird with. If ever you are allowed to visit Tasmania, once this pandemic goes away, id be more than happy to take you on a walk about to taste some of our wild fruits. Let me know either way.
My friend from Rarotonga (Cook Islands) as a kid told me how she used to eat wild Pistachio's for the sweet fruit and throw away the nut and it wasn't until she came to New Zealand that she found out that in the west we eat the seed and throw away the fruit.
In florida I ate the fruit planted the seeds in pots grew them to about twelve inches then gave em to a neighbor in Plantation fl. She planted them and they’re beautiful trees now
Shouldnt all stinging nettles be the same? ;) Im totally convinced that this arent stinging nettle in the video. Look at them. They look so much different. There are about 2625 different species of nettle and just one of them is the stinging nettle. But this arent them at all. Everything look different. PS: Real stinging nettle have no berries, but fruit and leaf is edible if prepared correct.
@@sleepingcity85 haha I wish I knew I needed to boil the nettle first, I tried picking a wild nettle leaf and eating it. I spent hours trying to get the soares out by drinking milk lol.
@@sleepingcity85 the thing in the video is definitely not the normal stinging nettle, urtica. The thing in the video looks like a tree, whereas urtica are more like small bushes, and certainly don't have berries.
Have you ever explored the fruit of some seaweeds? There's one I had in Okinawa called sea grapes (caulerpa lentillifera... I think!).Beautiful little bubbles that is so much like, I suppose, caviar, especially with a little light soy and mirin on it. Definitely worth giving it a try.
Botanically speaking, algae don't have fruits. What you had is more like bulbous "stems" or "leaves". (Botanists won't even call them stems and leaves but the difference here is less important.)
@@YelDohan I didn't want to complicate things with unnecessary details. I just used the word 'fruit' in a more casual manner than literal. Although those bubbles can be used for floatation on some seaweeds, these ones are filled with liquid so I think they are the reproductive parts of it... so I just guessed they are pretty close to being its fruit. Jared has done articles on things other than fruits, so I thought this would be a valid question regardless of what they are.
@@batznocharge There's a really nice (and really long) anime, called One Piece. This anime has special fruits, called Devil Fruits, which when you eat them give you a power, but you lose the ability to swim in salty water and also your power is gone if you're locked in a cage made of sea stone (which I'm sure not the proper name, but Idk how it's called in English)
"Lets just assume this was used as a condiment on human flesh" *Dips finger into it and tastes it* ... ... *Goes for a second tasting of his finger* Alright that's it I'm interested in this channel
I literally had no idea that pistachios were from a fruit. And add in the fact they're related to mangoes, that just makes me want to go where they're grown fresh to try some for myself.
I'm so familiar to eating stinging nettles, to the point were i just eat them raw. No i don't shove it in straight away, but i roll the leaves in my hands in order to brake the hairs (Trichomes), so it doesn't sting my mouth (Though it does sting my hands, but it doesn't bother me).
@skeemp No, because nettles have trichomes, with are basically a really nerfed down version of thorns. Once you squeeze the juices out and roll the leaves around in your hand, it practically brakes the trichomes, so it no longer stings. And if you happen to still get stung upon swallowing, the worst that would happen would just be a tickle in the throat.
The dried leaves are also used to make a kind of tea. Altough the stinging bettle growing in Europe look quite different from the one shown in the video.
This was way more thorough and methodical then what i expected clicking on this video. Very good. For a top 10 list, you seem to actually put effort into knowing what youre talking about lol I live around nettles, people use them for all sorts of things. Mostly tea for joint pain and peeing better, but you can also use the stinging effect itself for a sort of nerve therapy
Pleasee come to Konkan,India when the pandemic is over. You'll see a lot of different fruits. And also try karvanda(Carissa carandas). You'll see a lot of shrubs along the side of the roads. We also have two different varieties of jackfruit,kaapa and barka. We have kokum,which us similar to mangosteen Many different types of mangoes. You can also try different products made from these fruits. Make sure you try kokum soda.
Is it bad that I knew all of these as I watched from watching every single one of your videos before often as they come out. I have poor mental health and have a lot of down time often and your videos are calming and don’t trigger my anxiety. I have also been interested in fruit but could never travel like you do tho maybe one day. Anyway thank you for the content :)
@@pepre7594 I think it's part of human nature, to have that need to explore, and see something new. Watching Jared's videos, I deeply regert never traveling. Still, they are all good.
Seeing Jared travel on all these trips and seeing all these places does make me want to travel. I then look at my bank account and the pandemic and think that is not going to happen soon.
Ive found abundant free time is conducive to mental illness. Get yourself out of the rut by slowly pushing yourself every day to take one more step a day, do one more thing. It helps fix your reward system. Also vitamins/excercise are super important. Worked better than medication for me. Being depressed isn’t always the wrong response to a shitty boring life inside all day. Anxiety can be reduced through everyday practice and understanding your fear isn’t rational
Papaya seeds are also often used as an adulterant for black pepper (and BTW is used to kill parasites in the digestive tract). Love your channel! Thanks for sharing your fruit adventures & the knowledge you've learned! ❤
11:17 - People use bromelain topically, to remove dead skin from burns, and orally, to reduce inflammation and swelling - particularly of the nasal passages. Bromelain is also used as a digestive aid, for osteoarthritis, and to reduce soreness in aching muscles.
There is reasons a lot of fruits are not in supermarkets. The reason things are in supermarkets is because they have a long shelf life. That is why people will love things like mulberries and even though mulberries produce a lot it does not get put into grocery stores. Same situation as say thimbleberries which was on Jared's top 10. Another reason can be production levels. You want something that is going to produce a large amount so you can make quite a bit. There is also some fruit that is banned in a lot of states so not very commercially viable such as currents. Also water needs can become a challenge in growing certain fruit commercially. Paw Paw live in zone 5 where I am but require 30 inches of water a year which is double our rainfall for the entire year.
a few years ago in naples florida I found a pandanus growing in some rich person yard. I was so intrigued that I just had to steal one... never seen one before or since
I was waiting for that Pandanus pay off after being said so much in the intro and I thought "he wouldn't..." but he actually did! That madlad. Got a laugh outta me.
Ah man I love your videos and what you do! I’m constantly turning people onto your channel and the feed back is always top notch so thank you. Have you ever been to South America? LOTS of weird and unique fruits there
I gotta hand it to you any countdown of strange/weird things tend to be almost exclusively "weird" things that are popular factoids, but almost all of these are genuinely interesting and weird and I had never heard of them.
Growing up in California, we have pistachio orchards and stuff around here, so it was weird to see that one because it's so normal to me! Never eaten the skin though, that's really interesting.
Nettle soup was a common dish here in the Nordics once. Boiling it takes away the poison and destroys the needles. I have never tried it myself, but I am told it is very healthy.
Fun fact: In Serbia getting stung on nettle is concidered healthy since doesnt cause actual damage, you babies XD... Oh and because of the old "pain means healing" crap... But it is actually healthy, try making nettle soup, you wont regret it.
You have quite a few videos in your arsenal, so I haven’t seen them all. That being said, I was not disappointed to see you going to town on your hand a second after I thought to myself “well, is it working? Is the tomato making you want to eat your finger?”😂
Just want to thank you for turning me on to Fresh durian. Yes it is stinky, but tastes good. Your durian episodes are my motivation. Particularly the ones shipped from California, year of the durian.
Woah dude wait hold up I haven’t looked at your sub count until now how are you not in the millions?! Quality content really is under appreciated on here huh.
that one's probably the weirdest of all. Also the one that's used as a living barbed wire by African bushmen to keep out the lions and tastes like fruity beets
4:52 oh man 😂. i never saw gunda as fruit. I'm from india and i have some information about gunda. we eat by swallow frying it in powder of methi* and spices and also by making pickle out of it. like soaking it in lemon juice and then mix it with oil and spices. making is a damn mess. but its delicious after cooking. i love it.
In Iraq we call glueberry Bambar. My family had tree at our old house. Its less gluey than the berries you showen in the video. I used to eat it when I was a kid. My mother would harvest the green berries and pickle them. In weekends Mme and my friends would use the glue from the berry to makke paper kites.
Nah - not clickbaity enough. If this was a buzzfeed or earth titan video with no background information whatsoever and just photos from a search engine then yes.
I've had stinging nettle and mint tea fairly often, it's nice as far as herbal teas go. There is also a local cheddar variety called Yarg which is wrapped in nettles and it's one of my all time favourites
Fun fact, we make pancakes from stinging nettle here in Finland. Just blanch the leaves, puree, and then add to crepe batter. The blanching gets rid of the sting. The flavor is nice and mild, like spinach, but more aromatic. Nettle soup is another, basically a thinned down bechamel with blanched, chopped nettle leaves. Spinach can be used as a substitute for either recipe. I had no idea stinging nettle had fruit, or that it was edible. Or that there were several species, or that they could be... like the height of a tree. Amazing!
The Steven, and Jared videos are interesting. It sucks, that travel is so problematic. The Earth is amazing, and we live under the illusion that we conquered it. We have this feeling of superiority, flying over the Earth, and ten thousand feet, ignorant at the complexity of what's beneath our feet.
got recommended this channel with the Cloudberry Hunt video. clicked this one cuz it’s a bit shorter for my break before chores, and i’m pretty gosh dern excited 😂👌🏼
the Tasmanian Mountain Berry, is also known as Pepper Berry and there is an ice cream shop in Launceston, Tasmania that makes an ice cream with Pepper Berry in it and its AMAZING. So if your in tasmania check it out.
Thank you for this video. A lot of valuable information. I wish these fruits were easier to find so I could grow them. I'll be on the lookout :) I'm subscribing
You should try "manila tamrarind" which is shaped like tamarind from the outside (it is very pretty and pink when ripe) but the flesh tastes completely different.
I can confirm stinging nettles' leaves are edible. You harvest them with rubber gloves carefully as to not sting your hands, wash them and SUN DRY THEM TO BREAK UP THE POISONOUS HAIRS. Still after that you cook them in some way that allows rehydration. Omelets are a traditional fix, soaking them in the egg for a while (that's how my grandma makes them) . They're kind of like a leaf vegetable, like weird spinach or something . Still, it's a quite rare and dated specialty and hard to come by, and I sure didn't expect them to show up. Great work, keep it up!
in albania we have a couple unique ones, we have chocolate persimmon which is the most delicious fruit i have tried. The second best fruit is what we call a firiki apple or miniature apple, it has the flavor of a big apple packed in a apricot sized apple amazing. Also thana shqiptare which is a cherry looking fruit extremely dry, imagine if a quince was super sweet, its blood red on the outside and broccoli green in the inside, its known as an athletes fruit. Musmula is another one its like a sour tropical tasting fruit, it has a tree sap texture that i dont like, but as an aromatic or flavoring i absolutely love it, they mainly use it with tobacco

Oliver Kurzweg that’s where you’re wrong. Never heard of this channel, never watched any fruit related videos and it still came up in my recommended
I've had stinging nettle and mint tea fairly often, it's nice as far as herbal teas go. There is also a local cheddar variety called Yarg which is wrapped in nettles and it's one of my all time favourites

Fun fact, we make pancakes from stinging nettle here in Finland. Just blanch the leaves, puree, and then add to crepe batter. The blanching gets rid of the sting. The flavor is nice and mild, like spinach, but more aromatic. Nettle soup is another, basically a thinned down bechamel with blanched, chopped nettle leaves. Spinach can be used as a substitute for either recipe.
I had no idea stinging nettle had fruit, or that it was edible. Or that there were several species, or that they could be... like the height of a tree. Amazing!
The Steven, and Jared videos are interesting. It sucks, that travel is so problematic. The Earth is amazing, and we live under the illusion that we conquered it. We have this feeling of superiority, flying over the Earth, and ten thousand feet, ignorant at the complexity of what's beneath our feet.

Can't believe the internet got a dude to eat glue(berries) and record it to review the flavor
i was wondering if you ever had clammey cherry, then i heard you saw you eating glue berry. that was such a coincidence
The leaves are used to make tea
BTW, your couch is awesome. Thank you so much for all of the education on things I had NO idea existed. What a wonderful journey.
When you gonna find the devil fruits?
What I like about your channel is you don't care about any drama or any other TH-cam stuff going on you just stick to your goals
eat a cattail its really strange but it has a sweet juicy taste
that's a good idea!
Ate Pandanus fresh once, they were growing along a beach I went to as a child. Tastes a bit weird as you said.
Thanks for the video
You should try "manila tamrarind" which is shaped like tamarind from the outside (it is very pretty and pink when ripe) but the flesh tastes completely different.
He’s had that: th-cam.com/video/2IytY4O1DL8/w-d-xo.html
I can confirm stinging nettles' leaves are edible. You harvest them with rubber gloves carefully as to not sting your hands, wash them and SUN DRY THEM TO BREAK UP THE POISONOUS HAIRS. Still after that you cook them in some way that allows rehydration. Omelets are a traditional fix, soaking them in the egg for a while (that's how my grandma makes them) . They're kind of like a leaf vegetable, like weird spinach or something .
Still, it's a quite rare and dated specialty and hard to come by, and I sure didn't expect them to show up. Great work, keep it up!
in albania we have a couple unique ones, we have chocolate persimmon which is the most delicious fruit i have tried. The second best fruit is what we call a firiki apple or miniature apple, it has the flavor of a big apple packed in a apricot sized apple amazing. Also thana shqiptare which is a cherry looking fruit extremely dry, imagine if a quince was super sweet, its blood red on the outside and broccoli green in the inside, its known as an athletes fruit. Musmula is another one its like a sour tropical tasting fruit, it has a tree sap texture that i dont like, but as an aromatic or flavoring i absolutely love it, they mainly use it with tobacco
