概要	Our aims were to examine the taste-modifying phenomena of miracle fruit by evaluating how the sense of taste changes after eating miracle fruit and to make sure that there is no change in taste of foods except for sour foods. With regard to sweetness， saltiness， bitterness， and umami， there was no change in taste before and after eating miracle fruit; however， regarding all 8 sour foods eaten after miracle fruit， sourness intensity significantly decreased while sweetness intensity significantly increased (p < 0.01 each). The ranges of sugar content and pH of the 8 sour foods were 4.0 to 12.0% and 2.4 to 4.8， respectively.
