Mysterious fruit is an evergreen broad-leaved shrub. Its fruit is sweet and sour. Eating other acidic foods, such as lemons and sour beans, can turn sour taste into sweet taste, so it is called "mysterious fruit".

The mysterious fruit protein itself is not sweet, but when people taste sour food that is not sweet, it can make people taste sweet. This characteristic belongs to a taste modification function and does not change the chemical composition of the food itself.
