Hey Eric, great vid - I always learn something new. I must say my wife and I had a great laugh at your expense. My wife knows the bilimbi as kamias and when she saw it she got pretty jazzed, as that is what her Mom used to make fish sinagang in her childhood. She remarked it was pretty sour, so to see your visceral reaction to eating it - well, it just cracked her up and left her with tears in her eyes. (I must admit we replayed it several times - lol). Thanks for being the guinea pig on these experiments. As an aside we just purchased a Harvest Right and watched with interest, and some dismay I may add, your first vid on the freezing problems you had, so I'm looking forward to seeing how you fixed it. Cheers!

Just like dehydrated fruit don't forget to drink water. Don't eat a large quantity and then drink water as that makes for upset stomach. You need to watch this when kids are eating a lot of it. I would like to see eggs freeze dried in the StayFresh freeze dryer.

[@lilasdavis102]

Well…..now I know what fruits to try and what not to bother with….😅😂🤣Thank you ! 🥝🍓🍋🫐🍊🍐🍎🍏🍌🍒

[@Braddy_Daddy]

Bro thanks for doing the tropical fruits! Hard to find many freeze dried videos on em.

[@stillnessbetween5103]

Wow! Good episode! Glad to see the result of the soursop. I agree, I could not come to like the texture of the fresh fruit. With all my buddies here in Florida growing it, they just couldn't understand why I didn't eat it. They are from the Islands. I always would juice it for mixed drinks. I have freeze dried some dragon fruit after I saw you doing it and my friends are now bringing their harvest to me to FD. I will be trying out the soursop. Thank you. Oh yeah, the roller berry looks awesome!!🙂 Good find!

[@robertmalis4493]

I don’t know if you’ve done orange segments or not but doing some citrus would be cool

[@johnrodabaugh4887]

I always enjoy your videos and the genuine reactions when you try things. Keep up the great work!

[@ujan9812]

that's belimbing wuluh, different with just (belimbing=starfriut), and every time I eat it that,my asthma always flares up, hahaha,but i got addict with that taste

[@2guysandacooler]

Correcto. The little sour fruit I am eating is also known as the Averrhoa bilimbi, or bilimbi for short. I wasn't expecting that explosion in my mouth!!

[@davidglavich4701]

this last tiral was some weird stuff, thanks for the experiment might save me

[@nerdierannie1351]

Can you freeze dry Ube? or Sweet potatoes? or roasted Chestnuts? or Corn?

[@jago4673]

I have wanted to know about the taste of durian freeze dried. Will you freeze dry(Be prepared for the smell when cutting it can be obnoxious)?

[@lindacgrace2973]

I frequently come out with a bumper crop of tomatoes. After canning all of the paste tomatoes my pantry can handle, what do I do with the super-tasty beefsteaks, salad, and cherry tomatoes I have left? I would LOVE to know how to freeze dry tomatoes to preserve them. They're pretty watery, does freeze drying concentrate tomato flavor or destroy it?

[@rodolphfarah200]

Hello Eric. You do know that there are different varieties of blackberries, some tart, some sweet and others highly aromatic. Can you try the sweeter version with Brix above 11 and maybe Tayberry or Loganberries since these two are the best? Thank you for your presentations, very beneficial. I also need if possible the top 5 tasteful sausages list that you may have experienced since I also do Heat cured sausages in Sous vide for my family and would like your opinion. Thank you and keep the good work.

[@2guysandacooler]

Black berries are in very short supply where I live. I basically can only get what is locally grown by my neighbors. I'd love to try different varieties. Maybe someone out there is growing some of the sweeter ones. I bet those would be super tasty!

[@kevchard5214]

The Bilimbi proves this wasn't staged. LOL

[@MrDmorgan52]

Eric we're not going to get mad if you really tell us how you feel!! I could tell by the look on your face that balimbi(?) was the worst thing you've ever eaten!!

[@2guysandacooler]

😂😂😂it was certainly the strangest
