Title: Real Sun Berry
Post by: mikekchar on July 30, 2023, 09:59:57 pm

Video of the Brazilian Sun Berry from Weird Explorer (largely an exotic fruit tasting channel): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQGpaVfzKWE

Interestingly, was discovered only around 15 years ago -- just after DF was released.  A coincidence?  No word on fermenting it, unfortunately.  I think someone needs to "for science" this...

If there's sugars, humans can and will ferment it.

I imagined that blackcurrant is the sun berry, because in Norwegian and Danish it's called solbær (literally sun berry). But this is closer to the in-game species.
