I am sure my Chem teacher would know the first one, as she always has a sourpuss on her face :mrgreen:

Well lemons are the sourest fruit I've ever eaten but that doesn't say much.

When I lived in Turkey, there were these Green plums that were so sour you would have a pucker for a week. :shock:

I love sour fruits. I eat lemons on their own but after a while they loose they're kick.

Once when half a lemon was left over from a Food Tech lesson the teacher asked me if I wanted it wrapped up or was it going to be thrown away? I just said no I'll eat it now!
The look on her face was priceless.

Well, try kamias or A. balimbi. Very sour indeed. We actually add them as ingredients to enhance the sour taste of a common and loved menu here, the sinigang.
