So, a couple of years ago I bought a pack of Miracle Frooties off of the internet, a different brand than these, and really enjoyed my experience. My boyfriend hadn't even heard of miracle fruit, so I figured it was time to experience the strange taste bud-altering sensations of this truly miraculous berry just for funsies again.
These tablets are just as strong, if not very slightly stronger, than the tablets I've tried previously. The flavor of the pills is mildly unpleasant at first, and you can sort of tell that the flavor is changing and becoming more sweet as you dissolve the pill on your tongue--the effects are /very/ quick, and should already be taking place while you slowly dissolve half or a whole tablet (my preference is just to use a full tablet to get a bit more out of the experience, as well as increased longevity of the sensation) in your mouth. Really, the longer you just swish the tablet around your tongue, the more contact the miraculin has with your taste bugs, the better. Don't chew them up!
Also, try not to drink too much alcohol before doing this... I think? For both my boyfriend and I, we tried them first moderately under the influence and found the effects to be more sedated and tame than they were sober. He said he could tell that things were sweeter, but it just wasn't as big of a difference in flavors as it was when we tried them the next day--I felt like the experience was still fun under the influence of alcohol, but also way less impactful or profound of a tasting experience than doing so sober.
Like other reviews mention, the strength of the flavor transformation also partially depends on individual factors... it just works better with some people than others. For instance, I could barely even tell that the bitter 'feeling' (not necessarily a bitter flavor) was there when sucking down lemons, but my boyfriend still detected the bitter 'feeling.' Things were sweeter for me than they were for him.
The gross, unripe oranges I had bought from the store a few days prior tasted like nectar of the gods, while grapefruit tasted like it was already sweetened with sugar. Limes and lemons tasted like pretty much what you'd expect--limeade and lemonade. Salt and vinegar chips had a unique and pleasant sweetness to them, while Flaming Hot Cheetoh with Limon tasted... pretty bland, actually. Fruits tasted the best, dill pickles tasted like sweet pickles, and sriracha sauce also had a new, pleasant sweet flavor. Lemon Starbursts were absolutely INCREDIBLE. And I even had an ice cream bar near the end of my experience, which tasted sweeter and lighter than that type of ice cream bar normally tasted, but also had a slightly artificial flavor... that didn't bother me, really, but figure it's worth noting.
All in all, fantastic product at a great price, really. You get quite a few tablets, so one pack is great for a party or fantastic to just have laying around for a rainy day, where you really just want everything to taste like sugar heaven.

The History of the Miracle Berry
Native to Africa’s Gold Coast, the Miracle Berry has been integral to the diet of tribes spread across modern day Sierra Leone, Ghana, and Nigeria. This miracle fruit was introduced to the Western world by the French explorer Chevalier des Marchais in 1725 and has fascinated scientists ever since.
How Your Tongue Tastes
Spread all over our tongues are taste buds with several different types of receptors. These receptors help us discriminate between sweet, sour, bitter, savory, and other tastes. So if, for example, you were to bite a lime, the acids in the lime would cause your sour receptors to send signals to your brain. Your brain would then interpret these signals as tasting something sour.
How Miracle Fruit Alters Taste
Miracle fruit contains a glycoprotein called Miraculin. (Really, that’s what it’s called). Miraculin binds to your tongue’s sweet receptors. The Miraculin found in mberry modifies the shape of your taste buds, confusing their recognition of sweet and sour.
You’ll achieve the best effects with sour, bitter, or acidic foods. Strawberries, Granny Smith apples, and hard cheeses are truly beautiful experiences. Lemon juice and vinegar will blow your mind.
