Date: March 16, 2008 07:45PM Mulberries to me are sort of like blackberries, but more sweet, less tart, and the flavor is more "red". We used to have a mulberry tree in my backyard when I was growing up.
If they are dried, I'd skip them. Re: What do Mulberries, Incan berries, Jungle peanuts taste like?

Date: March 16, 2008 08:07PM Mira, I don't do much dried fruit. It is nothing in taste compared to fresh. I am not convinced it's nearly as healthy. And it's usually very expensive, too. In general I am against superfoods or stuff you can order off the internet. Try to make fresh your highest priority. I still do frozen berries, though.

Date: March 16, 2008 08:11PM Mmm, I love mulberries, preferably fresh but dried ones are great too.
Yacon tastes somewhere between dried apple and dried pineapple. Lucuma is delicious, hard to describe, sweet and creamy. Rob -- Rob Hull - Funky Raw My blog: [www.rawrob.com] Re: What do Mulberries, Incan berries, Jungle peanuts taste like?

Date: March 17, 2008 12:32AM dried. mulberries? gah, yucky! those are only good fresh imo. they grow wild here all over the place. there are about 5 trees right next to my house. too many cars around though, i won't be eating those ones. there's another tree right next to our cottage too, we gorged on berries last summer, so delish!

Date: March 17, 2008 01:45AM Yacon tastes starchy and not that sweet to me. The dried mulberries don't taste NEARLY as flavorful as the fresh ones. But I still like them, I like dried fruit. Jungle peanuts, I just tried briefly so I'm not sure--but didn't seem as good as the regular (albeit mold-infested peanuts). But I need to try them again. Anyone else have input on them?
Incan berries are tart, I didn't love them. I'd love to try lucuma, have heard great things. Re: What do Jungle peanuts taste like?

Date: March 20, 2008 04:38PM I just got a bag of Jungle Peanuts yesterday and they didn't taste anything like your typical dry roasted peanuts. They actually reminded me of eating snow peas (they're both legumes so that makes sense I guess). That was the cloest thing I found to compare them to.

Date: March 20, 2008 05:24PM Yeah, I ate some more. They didn't taste like much. I was hoping they'd be more peanut-y. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
