The Miracle Fruit (AKA the Miracle Berry) is a food that makes other sour and bitter foods taste sweet.
Seriously!
By bonding the protein miraculin to your taste buds (or something like that; science isn’t too sure) the Miracle Berry Fruit Tablets can change the way foods taste for up to an hour.
Though the obvious test is to grab a lemon and chomp away like some sort of crazed mad man, another option is to order a pack of the tablets, gather a bunch of strong tasting foods, invite some friends over and host a “flavor tripping” party.
Whatever you decide to do with them, a pack of 20 servings will set you back just $20 from ThinkGeek, so order a set and start tripping today!

MEET IN ver.0 is a short and ‘cute’ game that puts you in charge of four separate people on four separate parts of the screen.
The goal is for them to all meet in one area, but you’ll need to solve a few puzzles first to get them there.
It’s an interesting idea that definitely has some possibility for the future, when the creator “may upgrade it with more gimmicks”.

Want to try something different this weekend?
How about adding bacon to your chocolate chip cookie recipe?
Why not, right?
According to the author/cook, the “cookies are DELICIOUS”, and they definitely look like a conversation starter, so if you’re having trouble believing someone that would put bacon in their cookie batter, then bake your own batch and see for yourself.
Sounds like a pretty sweet weekend project to me…
