Strawberries. Where I was a kid I looked like I had a constant rash but I was eating strawberries 24/7

cheese_greater,

Do they actually turn you red if excessively consumed (like carrots/carotene -> orange) or did you just need a good wash?

Pulpogarden,

Huckleberries

Philote,

+1 for huckleberries. Especially plucked off the bush in the middle of a PNW alpine hike.

Must be edible. Im making that a rule aha

Edit: in the alternative, what do you like about the taste so much?

Edit: also, smile while eating ;)

jBlight,

Not my cup of tea… But it’s technically edible haha

cheese_greater,

technically edible

Try and stop him XD

OrteilGenou,

Blackberries and blueberries over Greek yogurt with a drizzle of honey, yum

cheese_greater,

You ever try simply adding just a peach slice(s) for natural sweetness?

Who’s the rainbow guy, Indigo/purple?

Edit: I wish I was berry-y enough for the Berry Club :(

cheese_greater,

Whats the purpley thing, Indigo?

JJROKCZ,

Probably blueberries, fresh blueberries in pancakes, waffles, yogurt, oatmeal, etc are so good

cheese_greater,

I don’t mind blues but I always just found them kinda bland and muted. But I would eat a bunch if money was no object for the sake of variety and antioxidants :)

JJROKCZ,

Fresh they’re muted yeah, cooking them seems to get the flavor to activate somehow

cheese_greater,

Its kind of an unfair comparison on my end tho cuz to me, nothing competes on the same level as raspberries. Like, they are basically perfection to me to the extent I view myself as a human version of a raspberry. A little sweet, mostly tart, fibre up the wazoo ;)

JJROKCZ,

More expensive and hard to find in my experience though. The only time I see raspberries it’s a half rotten carton of 12 for twice the price of other berries

cheese_greater,

I just get good frozen. I would love to have or live near a patch and be able to pick barrels but too expensive otherwise. Also, I like to eat things in my timeframe

If you’ve got a garden, get some plants - they’re easy to care for

Blackberries and blueberries if I’m eating them straight-up. If its berry-flavor, like in a syrup or something, its boysenberry 100%

Sir_Premiumhengst,

Tomatoes

cheese_greater,

Not gonna lie, maybe my second fave if we’re getting technical. But cheese_greater HATES bananas. I’m bananas enough, ain’t nobody got time for more of the same.

Rivalarrival,

If you’re going to go with botanical definitions instead of culinary, then tomatoes would jump to the top of your list: raspberries are not actually berries; they are an aggregate fruit.

cheese_greater, (edited )

I’m realize I’m straddling the line ;) Hence the bananas thing. We’re being pretty relaxed in this thread, if the discussion is purely limited to botanical berries, its going to be a fairly inaccessible or banal discussion compared to what is admissible in this thread :) Lets have some fun with it, eh?

Edit: for the purposes of this threaf and in the [paraphrased/adapted] words of the US Supreme Court, its a berry if I say it is ;)

Rubus chamaemorus or cloud berry. I had it when we stayed over night in the northern Swedish mountain and it’s sweet, fruity, soft and creamy at the same time. Heaven in your mouth!

cheese_greater,

Is it available in NA anywhere?

jeena,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

Not sure what NA is, but it’s difficult to get and only grows in the northern parts of our planet:

On top of it each plant only has one berry.

cheese_greater,

Like, can you buy it in North America likely? I wanna try this now.

What berry would you compare it closest to in terms of taste/experience?

jeena,
@jeena@jemmy.jeena.net avatar

Ah, according to Wikipedia there are some few states where it grows:

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b1/Rubus_chamaemorus_in_the_USA.svg

But not sure if you can buy it there. It’s normally not cultivated but just a wild plant.

Experience I’d describe like very soft blackberry but creamy and with honey taste in it.

cheese_greater,

Very cool, obscure. Thanks!

yenahmik,

Ikea sells cloudberry jam, or at least they used to a few years ago when we impulse bought it.
