The fresh berries do have an after taste to them, but the after taste is in the seeds. what I do is just mush them around in my mouth and not chew, or you can just let the berries sit overnight and the after taste will be gone the next day. Like Bookmark March 16, 2011 at 7:19PM.
Not all liquids are good at capillary action. If a liquid's cohesive forces are stronger than its adhesion to another surface, it's not going to happen. Mercury is a good example of this. It is very strongly attracted to itself and will not climb the sides of a glass tube, or anything else really.
Capillary action is the process that plants use to pull water up from the ground. This lesson explains what capillary action is, describes all the forces need for it to happen, and goes through examples of the process.
