Who's the rainbow guy, Indigo/purple?
Edit: I wish I was berry-y enough for the Berry Club :(

Banana
Watermelon
Betchya can't eat just one?
Strawberries. Where I was a kid I looked like I had a constant rash but I was eating strawberries 24/7
Do they actually turn you red if excessively consumed (like carrots/carotene -> orange) or did you just need a good wash?
Fav berries in no particular order are raspberries, blackberries, cranberries and blueberries
Banana. Heard they're botabically berries.
So crazy
Raspberry. Both the fruit and the computer.
Wild blueberries. I love frozen fruit in general (like a healthier version of popsicles), and wild blueberries are my favorite. They're smaller and way more flavorful than normal blueberries.
Glad that resonates with another soul, I always feel like I'm just "weird"

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!

Avocado. Definitely the best one.
Tayberry, it's like a better raspberry.
Or the Marionberry, the Tayberry's tart younger cousin

Huckleberries.
Blackberries and blueberries if I'm eating them straight-up. If its berry-flavor, like in a syrup or something, its boysenberry 100%
Shoot am I the only one here from the Pacific Northwest USA? Our most invasive species is also the most delicious berry there is: Himalayan blackberry. Can’t be beat. Just had some blackberry jam today on a charcuterie plate

Coffee
Tomatoes
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.
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.
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 ;)
Redcurrant
What would you compare it to, closest?
Black currant
Thanks for clearing that up, lickety-split 🤣
Huckleberries
+1 for huckleberries. Especially plucked off the bush in the middle of a PNW alpine hike.
Goldenberry (gooseberry). It's like mango, passion fruit, pineapple all packed into a single berry.
Crunch
Barry Sanders
@cheese_greater @asklemmy I’m a sucker for blueberries - they’re currently in season. Either on their own or in something.
Probably strawberry
Mint Berry Crunch
Blackberries and blueberries over Greek yogurt with a drizzle of honey, yum

I'm probably the weird one here, but I love cranberries. But not in cranberry sauce or anything. I have them in parfaits or pancakes/waffles mostly. But I frequently eat a few just plain without anything on them while I'm cooking.
I'm sensitive to sugar, so anything with more sugar in it makes me ill. But cranberries are perfect and tasty. I love the intense tang of them.
