miracle fruit tablets

[mjmchef]

I have been in tokyo for about a month now and hade the infamous miracle fruit berry. I wanted to buy the tablets and looked at the miracle fruit website but it seems they were out of stock. Any info on where I might be able to get them here in Tokyo? alos looking for Soy salt. Bought some home type one from south Japan but it wasn't the same. I read of a place called miracle fruit cafe that I will check out tomorrow in namjatown. Thanks for the help.

I would try a drugstore, or maybe a department food basement (I believe you can get them canned, as well as in tablet form, not to mention fresh).

Good luck!

I've never heard of "Miracle Fruit Tablet"

According to this website, the manufacturer will stop the sales of this product. The site says that due to the large typhoon this year (which year? 2006?), the farmers in Taiwan cannot harvest miracle fruits.

miracle fruit is a berry basically that we get from africa that makes sour things like lemons, limes anything bitter taste sweet thus the miracle part. the tablets we saw come in a tray of 10. I am aware of the typhoon but I know we still get the fresh ones. I wanted to take them back to the states but the fresh doesn't have a long shelf life. Going to miracle fruit cafe today to see if they know where I can get the tablets. Thanks for the help.

If you're concerned about finding them in the U.S., don't worry, they're here!
