for that last one, the calcium is in the form of these really little crystals that will make it feel like you're eating fibreglass. they can also rapidly turn into kidney stones if you eat too much. the fruit takes about a year to ripen and is ripe when the scales start to fall off on their own (ripening depends on country's climate)
When it comes to fruit and vegetables, or anything that naturally exists, they usually have a very unique flavor profile that it’s nearly impossible to describe. However they usually have similar notes of flavor to each other hence the use of other fruit as description
Thats how we describe anything we're unfamiliar with, we compare it to what's similar. Like if you explained a word's meaning to someone, you would explain it with its synonyms.
Ok, I'm Brazilian and no cupuaçu tastes like chocolate. It does have a similar taste of cacao, but just the fresh pulp of the cacao fruit. A better example of what cupuaçu tastes like, is a very floral taste with hints of passion fruit. It has a very strong sweet flowery smell but the fruit itself is very sour, I recommend eating the meat with sugar or making a juice of it. It is very delicious I strongly recommend it!
The number 1 fruit is also present in the southern region of Brazil. I ate it and it's a very tasty fruit, but you just can't eat too much of it becuse its calcium oxilates really start to hurt your mouth
It's awesome, we usually eat it together with açaí, but altho he isn't entirely wrong in the description of the flavour, he forgot to mention that its also sour, so usually we pair it up with açaí which we eat like a smoothie with syrup to balance everything out, but yes it's extremely creamy on its own and has quite an unique taste to it
Oh boy you shouldn't come to India 😂 Or you should if u wanna get used to reality outside developed countries. Most tender coconuts are chopped this way, Most coconuts are chopped this way but with a sikle, they spin the coconut in air every time they hit it until it cracks into 2 pieces.
The miracle fruit is pretty amazing. I've had it about an hour after i picked it and it was wild. Too bad it goes bad quickly because the tablet form doesn't work as well
As an brazilian, i can confirm he said cupuaçu right not like every other american, nailed it! Fun fact: we mostly use cupuaçu to make ice cream, and by far its one of the best ice creams
There’s a fruit called rambutan it’s my favorite it’s hairy skin is hard so you cut the skin in half and eat the sweet white flesh on the inside but you have to eat around the huge seed in the middle. it tastes like grapes and apples and it’s so refreshing! You can get a whole bunch of it at your local Meijer❤️
My old family home had a Monstera Deliciosa growing in the backyard; it wasn't until the last month in that place that we discovered the fruit was actually edible on it. It'd been in the backyard ever since we moved in, was left untouched when we did a complete garden makeover because of its sure size and is now being looked after by the new family that lives there.
Miracle berry existis here in Brazil too, just in dry regions like Cerrado, its called Fruta Milagrosa (just a translation for miracle berry). Here it have a different color but has the same effect, but you need to eat it for minutes to start
My parents are planting this fruit too in our yard, we're living in Indonesia. It's quite hard to cultivate it here, but after they figure out the correct way, we kept 4 tree of it, and has been giving the others to our relatives 😁
Asian grocery stores carry some unusual (to Americans) fruits and vegetables. There is a Vietnamese store a mile from my house that has amazing selection of interesting foods, fresh and dried. They also have their own restaurant full of traditional and modern viet foods and drinks and a pharmacy inside to better serve the Viet speaking community but it's open to anyone. Pretty cool place.
@@letsreallytalk9482yeah, no. Many of them aren't exported so you won't find someone to send them to you and even if, they require special airlift shipping and will very likely not go through customs.
Getting jumpscared by cupuaçu right away was crazy. You never really think ur gonna see something that for you is so casual in one of these videos. The texture of Cupuaçu is kinda weird to me personally, but it has a really strong flavor that makes like, really good sweets and juices! That being said I wouldn’t really describe it as the national fruit of here tho. There’s other regional fruits that feel more popular, and also that type of thing is region dependent.
I planted an Akebia a few years ago. Still waiting for it to bear fruit, but it's also a pretty decorative vine. It even keeps it's leaves during winter
nipa palm fruit is called kolang kaling in indonesian! it's actually so good when cooked with cocopandan syrup (or any red syrups you prefer). it's also good for your body's joints :) edit: apparently kolang-kaling is from different species and genus altogether
Nipa Palm Fruit is a key ingredients to making the Maubanin Lambanog, A Fermented Alcoholic Drinks from Mauban, Quezon Province of the Philippines' Southern Tagalog Region.
The Miracle Berry is super common in the Cape areas. I was taught it's called wild cherry though. Always a nice treat to find when I walked home from my school bus stop 😊 good times
Brazillian here I absolutely LOVE Cupuaçu. It's perfect for sweets. Unfortunatelly, it's more common on the north, hard to found down south. But if anyone has a chance, try it. Warning, it's quite sour. Creamy and sweet, but has a strong sourness. I personally like sour fruits, but might not be your thing.
I have tried monstera deliciosa and it can be found EXTREMELY commonly in Australia in Sydney forests or places with plants, wait until hexagons naturally fall of and then eat the part where the hexagons fell off, it is so good
As a Brazilian 🇧🇷, I have been summoned to say it's just another endemic fruit actually, I don't know anyone who has had it raw because it's only common around the far north states of Pará and Amazonas. The same access you'd have for processed cupuaçu ice cream you find near the Açaí ice cream on fancy super markets in NY is the one I can also find in the supermarkets here in São Paulo, and that's the only one I have tried once so far, although most of them are actually "artificial cupuaçu flavoured". Now the one fruit that literally grows EVERYWHERE and we have a huge variety are Bananas, limes, mangoes and avocados. And Pitanga. You can find those in the city zone, because they survive without any maintenance, very often they appear by themselves.
Actually it's not endemic. It's really strong culturally in the north region, mainly from it's sweet syrup, ice creams and how creamy it is. Fellow amapaense here ❤
I have 3 cupuaçu plants in my backyard. I live in the southeast, so there's a surprisingly large amount of people that never heard of it. The flesh does NOT taste like chocolate mixed with pineapple lmao, just like the flesh on cacao pods taste nothing like chocolate. In cupuaçu's case, it's taste is even weirder, as it simply isn't sweet by itself. The different types of candies, and juices you can make with it, however, are simply amazing. One of a kind taste, if you ever visit Brazil, I highly recommend drinking the juice.
To me the smell was so amazing seeet pineapple banana combo. Like the most tropical smell ever. The effort of waiting for it to ripen annoyed me though
My parents have the Monstera Deliciosa plant in their yard (Australia). For ages I have asked Mum if the fruit has ripened yet and they're still not ready! Can't wait to dig in! 😋
in most parts of brazil, cupuaçu is considered a rather exotic fruit. I've never tasted one In Nature, but the juice and polp sure are delicious. I also have monstera plants here and it tastes kinda funny, but also real good. I've tasted a fruit similar to the second one, although much smaller and yellow in color, i assume the taste should be similar, so it's really good too
a small correction, in Brazil there is no national fruit, in the state there is not even a national animal, with US you have the bald eagle, the cupuaçu it is only a fruit originally from Brazil. And a curious fact, you can make chocolate with cupuaçu!
@@anaditullio Talvez seja porque você é de São Paulo, no nordeste essas coisas são mais comum, tem até o mel da fruta (cupuaçu também) e outras coisas.
Ah! Como eu amo quando os gringos falam das coisas boas e deliciosas do Brasil!😊 A propósito, existe um tipo de chocolate feito do cupuaçu chamado "Chocoçu".
Eu nasci e cresci em uma cidade no norte do BR, mas nunca ouvi falar do chocoçu. Esse chocolate é feito do caroço do cupuaçu? No norte é mais comum usar a geleia do cupuaçu como receio para trufas de chocolate, além de sucos e vitaminas.
@@gleiciane4137 eu vi uma vez em um programa de curiosidade e depois de negócios na TV pois os cara BR inventaram o chocoçu e depois os chineses depois de verem fizeram o mesmo e oficializarão o que gerou uma treta.
As a Brazilian I didn't know cupuaçu even existed much less that it was our national fruit, which is ironic as apparently the reason it was made the national fruit was actually to spread awareness of its uniqueness If you ask what our national fruit is most Brazilians would guess açaí or guaraná
I've had multiple of the monster diliciosa fruit before its really good I have and 1 in the kitchen right now (I just call them a delicious monster tho)
As a lover of cupuaçu, I can assure you it tastes NOTHING like chocolate or pineapple. It tastes a bit more like cacao flesh (itself nothing like chocolate) but way more acidic. It's taste is very unique when compared to most fruits Europeans and North Americans usually have.
I like the fruit that a knight and his long sword have to retrieve it, a maniac with an ax has to chop it open, yet you need to get a pair of tweezers and perform micro-surgery to remove and eat its delicate fruit.
AFAIK there are companies that are looking into it, but it's definitely not widespread The thing about the chemical in miracle fruit is that it works on acidic things, like citrus fruits (Wikipedia also mentions soft drinks)
There's also a fruit called Calabash that can be found in the Philippines idk where if you cook the inside and leave it you will eventually feel disgusted because the fruit is now black but that's natural because if you leave it for a while to cool, and if you drink the liquid it will eventually taste like a good wine or some sort. (But it will taste like rotten if you leave it on the fridge so better leave it on the room temperature)

I've tasted a fruit similar to the second one, although much smaller and yellow in color, i assume the taste should be similar, so it's really good too
I'm from Brazil and I looooove cupuaçu juice, I had it yesterday 😋😋
I just watched some weird/unnerving stuff and seeing this just feels so wholesome, you just made my say with a fruit video lmao
a small correction, in Brazil there is no national fruit, in the state there is not even a national animal, with US you have the bald eagle, the cupuaçu it is only a fruit originally from Brazil. And a curious fact, you can make chocolate with cupuaçu!
Com a manteiga do cupuaçu? Serio? Nunca comi! Deve ser bem gostoso. Nunca vi em São Paulo, mas você acabou de me dar uma nova missão 😊
@@anaditullio Talvez seja porque você é de São Paulo, no nordeste essas coisas são mais comum, tem até o mel da fruta (cupuaçu também) e outras coisas.
I just know that the miracle berry tastes like heaven
Bros voice is so calm like help 😂
Thanks
Ah! Como eu amo quando os gringos falam das coisas boas e deliciosas do Brasil!😊
A propósito, existe um tipo de chocolate feito do cupuaçu chamado "Chocoçu".
Eu nasci e cresci em uma cidade no norte do BR, mas nunca ouvi falar do chocoçu. Esse chocolate é feito do caroço do cupuaçu? No norte é mais comum usar a geleia do cupuaçu como receio para trufas de chocolate, além de sucos e vitaminas.
@@gleiciane4137 eu vi uma vez em um programa de curiosidade e depois de negócios na TV pois os cara BR inventaram o chocoçu e depois os chineses depois de verem fizeram o mesmo e oficializarão o que gerou uma treta.
@@mthaylanprogames3689não eram japoneses não?
@@enzonavarro8550 não lembro bem.
@@gleiciane4137 pois é, acabei de ler em outro comentário aqui...eu nunca tinha ouvido falar desse chocolate de cupuaçu..e agora quero experimentar 😅
I did an assignment in my biology class on the Miracle Berry, the compound in it responsible for its properties is called Curculin.
As a Brazilian I didn't know cupuaçu even existed much less that it was our national fruit, which is ironic as apparently the reason it was made the national fruit was actually to spread awareness of its uniqueness
If you ask what our national fruit is most Brazilians would guess açaí or guaraná
I'm busy waiting for monstera deliciosa to ripen. It's taking aaages. But I cannot wait!
Incredible fruit, I don't know if I wanted to eat any LOL LOL
I've had multiple of the monster diliciosa fruit before its really good I have and 1 in the kitchen right now (I just call them a delicious monster tho)
The number 1 fruit is also present in Brazil, just in the southern region, while the cupuaçu is from the northern region, in the Amazon Forest
That dude swinging the machete needs to keep his hands clear.
As a lover of cupuaçu, I can assure you it tastes NOTHING like chocolate or pineapple. It tastes a bit more like cacao flesh (itself nothing like chocolate) but way more acidic. It's taste is very unique when compared to most fruits Europeans and North Americans usually have.
I like the fruit that a knight and his long sword have to retrieve it, a maniac with an ax has to chop it open, yet you need to get a pair of tweezers and perform micro-surgery to remove and eat its delicate fruit.
Nipa palm fruit?
Really wanna try that Brazilian cacao and the last one.
The last one is AMAZING. I’ve only had it once and it is perhaps one of the most memorable things I’ve eaten.
That guy just whacking the nipa palm fruit with his hand right below is really anxiety inducing
Btw we use monster for it's leaves. People use them for wedding decorations
can the miracle berry be used a natural sweetener then? is there a brand that already does so?
AFAIK there are companies that are looking into it, but it's definitely not widespread
The thing about the chemical in miracle fruit is that it works on acidic things, like citrus fruits (Wikipedia also mentions soft drinks)
There's also a fruit called Calabash that can be found in the Philippines idk where if you cook the inside and leave it you will eventually feel disgusted because the fruit is now black but that's natural because if you leave it for a while to cool, and if you drink the liquid it will eventually taste like a good wine or some sort. (But it will taste like rotten if you leave it on the fridge so better leave it on the room temperature)
Monstera Deliciosa sounds like a spell you can learn in Hogwarts.
