"Miracle Fruit"?
I know Richard Simmons has been around a VERY long time, but I don't know that I would call him miraculous.

It looks a lot like coffee cherries. I wonder if the plants are related?

They use this stuff in Japan and elsewhere as a non-nutritive sweetener, but seem to recall that the FDA has been reluctant to approve it for US use.

Synsepalum dulcificum berries? I can’t understand why people aren’t asking for them, by name, at their local grocery?

My wife got one of those plants years ago. When we lived in South Louisiana, we kept it outside in a container under an oak tree most of the year. It doesn't like temperatures below about 35F and we would bring it inside.
We brought it with us to Rhode Island and it continues to do well although due to the much colder climate, it now spends much of it's time inside the basement bathed in the pink glow of a grow lamp.

Saw a of of these in a nursery last weekend. Now I wish I had bought a few plants.
