Merry merry eat the BERRY!
If we look at the botanical definition, a berry is:
“A fleshy fruit without a stone (pit) produced from a single flower containing one ovary.”
You might have questions. Are bananas berries? Surely a strawberry is a berry?
Yes, technically speaking, grapes, eggplants, and even bananas are classed as berry fruits. While what you normally consider berries, like strawberries and raspberries do not fit the definition.
This is because they develop from a single flower with more than one ovary. And this makes them an aggregate fruit.
But generally, most of us consider a berry to be any small, bright-colored, edible fruit without a stone or pit.
The list is long and it doesn’t end with strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries.
Berries are known for their health benefits. Many of them are considered superfoods. They’re packed with antioxidants that help boost the immune system and even prevent cancer.
