Olivia Munn posted an unbelievable video in which her small daughter Malcolm is shown to be having the time of her life with a raw lemon slice, no less, and to be indeed very much above the sourness the fruit brings. The actress actually took to social media and posted a short clip of her baby munching on a lemon which it seems is not the first time since the parents have had experience with this, but it has been widely accepted by the fans as a source of laughter and appreciation. This wonderful incident in the Munn-John Mulaney family still gives us glimpses of their little ones’ daily lives, which is not easy otherwise to catch.

Malcolm the actress’s daughter is in the clip, which is just a few seconds long and has the sound of Munn saying “baby, baby, baby” and then “I saw her in her no, she’s not here,” on the other side. The little is also seen very excitedly biting the lemon piece right from the skin. And what is even more surprising is the total indifference of the infant to the situation, a situation which is very likely to cause most adults and children to go through instant puckering.
Munn perfectly captured the surprise of her daughter’s taste test situation with her using playful lemon emojis and the remark “Straight from the rind and she doesn’t even flinch.” Soon the video became a topic of discussion among the actress’s followers who went on to share their surprise and delight for the baby’s rare palate.
Types of admiration comments and similar funny comparisons were the reactions that took the comment section by storm. One of them pointed out how the daughter has inherited her father’s famous spicy food tolerance and wrote “She tackles lemons like John does spicy things. Totally unfazed lmao.” This linking of John Mulaney’s talent for coping with extreme flavors seemed particularly apt, suggesting that the baby might have inherited the sweet and sour ones from her father’s side.
Many were mesmerized by the girl’s unusual blue eyes. A number of users even said that her face was sour but still beautiful. “What a lovely baby face!!! And those great blue eyes will take her wherever she wants to go!!” one user said and another “Those blue eyes my goodness” was the way another one expressed their admiration for the baby.
The child could possibly be of mixed Asian descent, as one of the comments stated “She’s really Asian” with a heart emoji. Another user simply commented “Definitely Asian! So adorable!” about the baby girl. The above-mentioned comments raise the issue of Munn and Mulaney’s child’s mixed heritage, as Munn is of Chinese and Vietnamese ancestry and her mother is Chinese and Vietnamese.
What fascination had the most been among maternal observers was the babies’ total nonchalance to what would normally be overbearing a taste sensation. “Unphased. Nonplussed. Who is this baby???” one amazed commenter raised the question, mirroring the general incredulity that such a sour food could be taken by a child with no showing of discomfort. Another comment said “Wow. What a champ—I’m impressed” combined with heart-eyed emojis, while another referred to the baby as “savage” but in an affectionate way.
The incident also brought forth some associations for followers with their own experiences as one of them mentioned leaving the lemons alone for his little Roxy who also loved to make lemonade her way! To this, another follower could not help but go up to the level of the universe’s child, tagging a friend to say “I think I found my soul mate child,” commenting on the baby’s weird but cool food choices he or she felt instant connection with.
Recognizably, many could see the physical similarity between mother and daughter, as one of the viewers commented “She looks SO much like you but with blue eyes! Just gorgeous” while another was discussing how the offspring has features from both her parents. The comment-tinted image showed the usually dazzling kid of Malcolm as a very lovely and yet surprisingly adventurous one in terms of palate for somebody so young.
Not only did the video depict a cute family moment but it also showed a true-to-life depiction, unfiltered, of the ups and downs of parenting that Munn sometimes shares with her followers. Instead of an immaculately staged picture, we get a real learning moment with the mother and child where the little twist of the baby who loves eating lemons is unexpected. Through sharing the mysterious moments of parenting, celebrities’ families’ authentic and candid moments usually go deeper into the viewers’ hearts than the highly polished content since they create bonds.

It happens sometimes that the most trivial things—like a baby having a lemon—can leave the biggest impacts and bring about the most genuine smiles.
