berries
Cereal bowl additions
Berries are small, fleshy fruits—strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries.
The botanical definition is narrower (tomatoes qualify, strawberries don't), but common usage follows appearance, not science.
Berry also refers to fish eggs or the eggs of lobsters and crayfish.
In slang, berries can mean dollars: That'll cost you fifty berries.
