Each girl put a berry in her bag for every call and the one who held her breath the longest won all the other girls' berries. | Hellson, John C., 1974, Ethnobotany of the Blackfoot Indians, Ottawa.

The children sat in a circle and began counting to ten, each child counting one number around the circle. The tenth child would take five berries and eat them at once, trying his best not to show a bitter face. If he was successful, the child next to him would do the same and this would continue until one grimaced at the sour taste. He was then struck on the thigh with a knuckle punch, thus giving the name 'punctured berry' to the plant. The child who never grimaced won all the others' berry supplies. | Hellson, John C., 1974, Ethnobotany of the Blackfoot Indians, Ottawa. National Museums of Canada. Mercury Series, page 122 |
