Free delivery on eligible orders. Review: Identical Strips, Different DNA: Why I Need My Wife to Tell Me What’s What - Forget the Fancy Vintage—Test Your Family and Friends' DNA Instead! I noticed these have jumped in price since my last order, but here’s the pro-tip: Buy these strips and a bottle of "budget" wine instead of splurging on a premium vintage. Your friends and colleagues will be much more entertained by a Christmas surprise that reveals their genetic origins than they would be by a fancy cork. By counting their taste buds (and watching their reactions), you can spin a great yarn about their evolutionary history. The "Lab Protocol" (To keep things fun): Freshness Matters: These strips weaken over time. Keep them dry and shielded from light if you want that "hit" of bitterness to stay potent. The Control Group: Always offer the control strip first. It builds the suspense and makes the eventual "PTC shock" much more hilarious. Label Your Vials: Whatever you do, don't mix up the vials! The strips look identical. If you do scramble them, you’ll need a "Supertaster" (like my wife) to sort the bitter wheat from the tasteless chaff. Embrace the Chaos: Most importantly—have fun with it! Cheers to a bitter (in a good way) Christmas!
