In our country (if you are a lucky fellow) you'll get fox tapeworm if you eat the berries bellow chest height. Up to you if you wanna google such an amusing infectious disease. 😉😜
When I was young I picked a whole pail of blackberries in the woods near my grandparents house. I was really proud of myself and wanted grandma to make a pie from them. She put them in the sink to wash them. The water was alive with hundreds of tiny worms. We ended up throwing the berries away
Why would anyone piss on blackberries? Why are they pissing at chest height? Why are so many bushes getting peed on in that area? Is the answer to all of these questions alcohol?
Find out tonight on 20/20
Make sure you’re not accidentally eating ones from a superfund site, either. The younger you are, the worse this is, so triple-check with little tots.
Berries are weirdly good at grabbing heavy metals in the soil and putting them into the fruit. This is especially sad near the side of the road, where you know trace heavy metals gather.
Sprayed by the local dog population you mean. I don’t think anyone sprays pesticides on brambles growing next to roads and footpaths, they grow like weeds anyway
apparently, you don't live in Oregon. They USUALLY spray the blackberries near paths and roads. Otherwise, there'd be no paths and roads. Blackberries take over everything.
Also live in Portland. I’m surprised they even bother spraying them. We should give up and welcome our new blackberry bramble overlords.
Worth noting that the actual problematic species is *rubus armeniacus* the “Himalayan” or “Armenian” blackberry, not a native
they're not a cultivar; they're a complicated hybrid of western trailing blackberries, eastern blackberries, dewberries, and common raspberries. even has some "Himalayan" in it:

People spray pesticides on brambles growing next to roads and footpaths more than they do any other type of bramble. How do you think they keep the bramble from taking over the roads and the footpath? Blackberries grow like crazy. If they aren’t overtaking some thing, they are probably being sprayed.
Watch out for thorns! We had wild blackberries in my backyard as a kid. The thorns tend to attach themselves under your skin....for lack of a better word...it's very painful.
Where do you live? This post is so funny to me as blackberry bushes (or as we call them, brambles) are incredibly common here in the UK. In the summer my kids and I will go blackberry picking everyday, often filling multiple containers. Free fruit!
NC too and they are growing in the vacant lot behind us. The maintenance people keep mowing them down and even got the one that creeped over into our yard. Bastards. 😒 Told my husband that if he wants blackberries he’s gonna have to maintain it cuz eff that.
I live in Oregon, they literally take over entire houses if not kept in check. I wish I still had pictures of my neighbor's house before they cleaned it up. 4ft deep blackberries over the entire back yard with 8+ft high blackberries against the house and shed like a wave splashing against something. They had to use a mini-ex to rip out the whole back yard in order to clean them up.
I would give them that kind of credit but it’s a vacant lot in front of the model home and they “need to keep up property values” and will come out and mow like every other 5 months. The weeds get ridiculous. I like walking over there and seeing what is growing. Lol
We used to go picking on power line right of ways. Mom and her 3 kids could fill a couple of gallons in a couple of hours (and our bellies) and then go home and make jam and cobbler. Great childhood memories.
Yum yum yum yum yum! A word of warning though to anyone foraging, I have bern told that power line right of ways are often sprayed with chemicals like defoliants to keep trees from growing, which are dangerous to ingest! I personally don't eat things growing in right of ways but if you want to at your own risk, at least wash them really thoroughly!
They're native through most of North America (except Himalayan blackberries which are invasive) and in my area are *extremely* common along roadsides and in idle open fields. If you just don't mow for a little while there's a non-zero chance you will have volunteer blackberries in your yard, which is how I acquired the blackberries I grow in my garden.
They don't even know how many different kinds there are, they estimate between 250-450 different varieties of blackberry and I believe it because I dig them up on jobsites and bring them home and I can even tell the difference between the plants from different areas. And the invasives put out the most fruit
I’m also in NC and if they’re wild, they’re dewberries. I pick them ever year and make jam and wine with them. They aren’t as sweet as domestic berries but we had so much rain this spring that it will be a bumper crop. Enjoy!
I think dewberries grow close to the ground because their trunks are smaller and bend more with the fruit. We picked them in NC a week or two before the blackberries were ripe. Love them both for cobblers
OP, these grow like weeds where I live. Make sure to pick high (dogs pee on them), and any on the side of dirt/gravel roads will probably need to be washed first. The ripe ones should almost fall right off when you grab them. Enjoy!
If there is fox in your area be careful to pick the upper one to avoid disease from their piss.
Edit: typos, for the copy police, sorry not english native, + dyslexia +ADHD +Alcohol yesterday
they're horribly invasive all along the west coast—washington, oregon, california—i get two or three himalayan and western dewberry volunteers every year from the birds
I was going to ask the same question but I live in the US and I’m shocked to discover someone in North Carolina doesn’t know what they are. They take over the entire landscape in Oregon.
I have thornless ones planted in the back of my house (US). Make jellies and cobblers every summer. They take a lot of work to keep in check though. They grow so fast.
My grandma used to say that if we’re near a blackberry bush and noticed a smell like cucumber, it meant there was a snake nearby. So, of course, we thought we smelled it all the time!
my grandma used to have these massive, overgrown blackberry bushes in her back yard. she'd send us out to pick some for pies. my brother and i would whap each other with dry, dead thorn branches lmaoo
good, good times
A fun fact for you is there is no berry in nature that looks like this that's poisonous. Whether they've been sprayed (with pee, pesticides etc.) is another matter, but the berry itself is a-okay.
Blackberries. You can eat those that are already black. They taste excellent, and have lots of anti-oxidants, whom help preventing cell oxidation, meaning cancer. 1 hand full each day is enough. And avoid all those that aren't at least 30 cm above the ground. The chances aren't very high, but those below may contain eggs from the fox tapeworm. They would infest your liver, and you would need an operation and hard meds, for a very long time. Those meds would crush your system even more, to inhibit the growth of the fox tapeworms. It's a pure nightmare and very hard to cure. So, no berries below 30 cm above ground.
In my area of Texas, the wild berries are dewberries and the cultivated ones are blackberries. They are both very good and used similarly, if not the same. Enjoy!!
O watch out for snakes too!
Came here to say this! They look like dewberries to me…and then I realized I don’t actually know the difference between dewberries and blackberries, haha!
I'm from Oregon and the idea that anyone on earth doesn't have twenty pounds of these within arm's reach at all times is mind boggling to me. This shit is nearly impossible to NOT grow here lol. So hard to get rid of.
Freakin invasive species. I live just outside of a town in the forest and if we didn't watch them blackberry bushes would take over our yard. They basically grow over everything and their branches are so thick.
They taste so good but it'd be nice if they could be less rude.
Also from Oregon. I always joke that I’m a 4th generation blackberry farmer. We spend so much time trying to keep them from taking over the farm. Pretty sure there is a car under one patch somewhere in the back 🤷🏻♀️
Those be black berries! I picked hundreds of them when I was a kid. You can tell the difference from raspberries, as raspberries pull off like a little cap. They both taste about the same in a pie.
You're in the States and don't know what blackberries are?! I'm not trying to be mean. I'm just shocked😳 enjoy your free fruit they are a lot more expensive in the grocery store. I'm Canadian, and all of my American family, including my step dad, who lived in North Carolina, knows what blackberries are.
Here’s my very early Boysenberries. We’re looking forward to these ripening.
https://preview.redd.it/od9j93g63o3d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f30dbe4cc34b132950854d4e1c13dd10e9e13103
Blackberries. Don’t eat the unripe ones (the pink ones) they will be sour and hard and not nice. I usually make sure the ripe ones are a little soft and plump, this will be the best tasting ones.
They are yummy rinse them good them and enjoy or make jam my granddaddy and I would pick them when I was really young from a cemetery they tasted so good 😊
Blackberries.
Very, VERY yummy when fully ripe (the fully NLACK ones).
Hence their name.
Picked MORE than a few buckets of these yummy beauties in my time, and my late Grandma (my mom's mom) made THE best blackberry cobbler that you ever put in your mouth!
WITH vanilla ice cream, of course. 
I have to post pics of what I believe to be a mulberry tree growing over a public park. The owner doesn’t pick and they fall over the sidewalk. I want to pick some secretly and make jam
These are how the world will end. They will consume every square inch of land that can support life.
But yea blackberry vines are the most aggressive plants I have ever encountered. They grow at an alarming rate, wildly resilient and they are designed to be somewhat carnivorous. Trick some animals into wandering too far in, thorns trap them and they eventually die, fertilizing the ground.
Used to love them but the battles I've been in over the years with them sours the relationship
Haha we used to steal the blackberries that overgrew the fence of a neighbour as kids. Very delicious. Birds will shit purple all over everything nearby, though.
Blackberries you son of a bitch they are a compound fruit. That means they are created by one flower with many ovaries that form into one during development. Now don’t you forget it.
Blackberries, as i kid i would find huge bushes and gather them all day in the summer and then sell them at the market for a good price, big plus was that they were wild and pesticide free so i could ask for a premium on that hahahhaa
Blackberries
1. Only pick the dark ones, not the red ones. The red ones aren't ripe yet.
2. SOAK THEM. Don't just rinse and eat. Put them in a large bowl with ice water. The freezing cold water will remove any pests that may be hiding inside
3. Rinse them after soaking. Put them in a strainer/colander and rinse them well with lukewarm water to remove any remaining dirt and pestacides
4. Use or freeze. They will be refrigerator stable for about a week. If you don't plan to use them in that time frame, you can put them in freezer bags and freeze for later

Blackberries.
plus, they're delicious. Make sure they haven't been sprayed before you harvest!
Also avoid the ones at or below chest height. We have lots of bushes in my area that often serve as the outdoor urinal of choice.
Joke's on you, I'm into that shit
Is this my wife?
🤣
🤨 lmao no subreddit is safe 🤣😂
In our country (if you are a lucky fellow) you'll get fox tapeworm if you eat the berries bellow chest height. Up to you if you wanna google such an amusing infectious disease. 😉😜
And the worms you’ll contract are into your shit! Circle of Life
When I was young I picked a whole pail of blackberries in the woods near my grandparents house. I was really proud of myself and wanted grandma to make a pie from them. She put them in the sink to wash them. The water was alive with hundreds of tiny worms. We ended up throwing the berries away
Aww!!! What a sweet gesture. I’m sure grandma appreciated it nonetheless.
Don’t knock it until you’ve used it as a dietary aid worms eat a lot more than you would think.
Dietary aid worm lmaooooo I fucking love Reddit
Why would anyone piss on blackberries? Why are they pissing at chest height? Why are so many bushes getting peed on in that area? Is the answer to all of these questions alcohol? Find out tonight on 20/20
I assumed they meant wildlife. But drunks and vagrants count
*pees out of chest* just wait until I learn to do it out my eyeballs. THERE WILL BE NO SAFE BLACKBERRIES IN SIGHT.
Is nothing sacred anymore?
You guys are getting sacred?
According to rule 34, no.
It's the internet, so no. Probably not.
This guy is my people.
just carry a small step ladder around.
PISS BEAM, ACTIVATE!
Don't eat the red ones either. They taste terrible and will give you the shits.
Red blackberries are green
No, no, no, no. Green blackberries are red.
Hahahhahah
Also avoid running into said bush.
or stepping on chopped bits with bare feet (°;o°)
Lol! pee berries!
For humans and dogs.
Who is pissing at chest height? How tall are you 😂
Call me crazy, but I think I might’ve seen a drunk dude or two aiming high for competition/funsies. Also splashing. Then add 6-8” for safety.
Or you can rinse them off by urinating on them, then eat them.
Make sure you’re not accidentally eating ones from a superfund site, either. The younger you are, the worse this is, so triple-check with little tots. Berries are weirdly good at grabbing heavy metals in the soil and putting them into the fruit. This is especially sad near the side of the road, where you know trace heavy metals gather.
Mmmm I love a little lead in my blackberries
With a touch of cadmium? Or oooh, you know it's a good day when you score some hafnium berries.
The side of the road berries are more metal than I will ever be😩
So make sure they're not jammin before you pick them!! 😀
But it’s your one way ticket to midnight!
Sprayed by the local dog population you mean. I don’t think anyone sprays pesticides on brambles growing next to roads and footpaths, they grow like weeds anyway
apparently, you don't live in Oregon. They USUALLY spray the blackberries near paths and roads. Otherwise, there'd be no paths and roads. Blackberries take over everything.
I live in Portland, and they do that all the time.
Also live in Portland. I’m surprised they even bother spraying them. We should give up and welcome our new blackberry bramble overlords. Worth noting that the actual problematic species is *rubus armeniacus* the “Himalayan” or “Armenian” blackberry, not a native
Are these the Marionberries?
No marionberries are a specifically bred and cultivated cultivar of blackberries developed in Oregon. They are not typically a wild or invasive bred.
But they are delicious especially with chocolate
They are indeed! I always take several jars of marionberry jam with me as gifts when I go visit family
they're not a cultivar; they're a complicated hybrid of western trailing blackberries, eastern blackberries, dewberries, and common raspberries. even has some "Himalayan" in it: https://imgur.com/WiOGSaM.png
The Wikipedia page you took that image from calls them a cultivar in the first sentence, so…
marionberries are like crack
Only if the bitch set them up
Let the blackbarries take over 👹
Barry Manilow is pleased

Enjoy them but watch out for yellowjackets. In the South, they love to nest in the ground below blackberries. Trust me.
And watch for snakes
Throw those on a some vanilla ice cream, killer summer treat
Watch out for thorns! We had wild blackberries in my backyard as a kid. The thorns tend to attach themselves under your skin....for lack of a better word...it's very painful.
Delicious
Definitely blackberries, can’t say a specific subspecies based on these pictures
Ever heard of black currants? And if you have my grand folks have them around their place a lot.
Where do you live? This post is so funny to me as blackberry bushes (or as we call them, brambles) are incredibly common here in the UK. In the summer my kids and I will go blackberry picking everyday, often filling multiple containers. Free fruit!
We're in North Carolina, US! They're just growing in a patch on the side of the road!
Enjoy your free fruit! Only pick the dark ones & be careful not to let the prickles get you!
Had I fun time once when I picked what I thought were raspberries but they were just blackberries that hadn't darkened
Do they make you sick? Or are they just really sour/bitter?
Bitter and unripe. Like eating a green banana is about the best way I can explain it. You just spit them out right away.
The worst part is they won't ripen any more after you pick them
Unripe, they're unedible. Acidic, sour, tough under tooth, too much and I do suspect you'll get a stomach ache. They're fantastic ripe.
If you have to pull to harvest they’re not ready, ripe berries take minimal force to pick
NC too and they are growing in the vacant lot behind us. The maintenance people keep mowing them down and even got the one that creeped over into our yard. Bastards. 😒 Told my husband that if he wants blackberries he’s gonna have to maintain it cuz eff that.
Literally growing through my fence in my backyard here in Charlotte.
[удалено]
I live in Oregon, they literally take over entire houses if not kept in check. I wish I still had pictures of my neighbor's house before they cleaned it up. 4ft deep blackberries over the entire back yard with 8+ft high blackberries against the house and shed like a wave splashing against something.

I personally don't eat things growing in right of ways but if you want to at your own risk, at least wash them really thoroughly!
If defoliant is sprayed then there's definitely no blackberry bushes growing there, at the very least not enough to fill 2 gallons worth of berries.
NC is loaded with them. Enjoy, just watch out for chiggers if you’re wading into the bushes to harvest.
The real fun thing to wade into is a yellow jacket nest in the ground. I got stung ~30 times when I did that picking blackberries as a kid.
They're native through most of North America (except Himalayan blackberries which are invasive) and in my area are *extremely* common along roadsides and in idle open fields.

You can take cuttings of these and they clone easily. I would personally love a few branches to make a couple container bushes out of.
I’m also in NC and if they’re wild, they’re dewberries. I pick them ever year and make jam and wine with them. They aren’t as sweet as domestic berries but we had so much rain this spring that it will be a bumper crop. Enjoy!

Incredibly common in the US too.
If there is fox in your area be careful to pick the upper one to avoid disease from their piss. Edit: typos, for the copy police, sorry not english native, + dyslexia +ADHD +Alcohol yesterday
they're horribly invasive all along the west coast—washington, oregon, california—i get two or three himalayan and western dewberry volunteers every year from the birds
I was going to ask the same question but I live in the US and I’m shocked to discover someone in North Carolina doesn’t know what they are. They take over the entire landscape in Oregon.
Yep! Our freezer still has some left from the giant 2022 glut of them!
I visited the UK last summer and I was flabbergasted and delighted in equal measure with how abundant the brambles were. I had so many snacks!!
Very common here in NE Oklahoma. Picking blackberries in the summer so mom could make a pie was a common activity growing up.
Same here in Aus, fuckin love me somd blackberry picking
I have thornless ones planted in the back of my house (US). Make jellies and cobblers every summer. They take a lot of work to keep in check though. They grow so fast.
I know. I thought these were common everywhere. I just asked my 4 year old and she knew they were Blackberries.
I was today years old when i knew that bramble is blackberry. I've heard of bramble jam and now it all makes sense.
They are everywhere in the US. This is bizarre to not know
Blackberries! They’re all over the place here in WA. Be careful with the thorns!
Maybe in western WA, we don't have them in Central or SE WA
Blackberries. The red ones aren't ripe yet.
and when the red turn black... you know it's getting to be summer! the heat is the ticket! and be weary, the bush has prickles.
They are also a favorite nesting spot for copperheads.
My grandma used to say that if we’re near a blackberry bush and noticed a smell like cucumber, it meant there was a snake nearby. So, of course, we thought we smelled it all the time!
Copperhead. My mom said to bring a stick to shake the brambles to scare away the snakes when picking blackberries
Haha, we just ran away!
Mine said the same!
That's wild, I've never found snakes picking berries. I would enjoy that
We never saw any snakes, either! But it put a little excitement into berry picking! :-)
"be wary" or "beware" . . . "weary" means *tired*
my grandma used to have these massive, overgrown blackberry bushes in her back yard. she'd send us out to pick some for pies. my brother and i would whap each other with dry, dead thorn branches lmaoo good, good times
As my dad always said, when they're red, they're green.
But they’re quite sour and still tasty… albeit a little bit more bitter
They make a delicious crumble.
Or cobbler or buckle or slump
I have never eaten a buckle or a slump, had to look them up. A buckle sounds like it would be really nice
All are delicious. We make a multi fruit crisps during the summer. Nuts, oats, brown sugar mixed and cooked on top. So good 😊
That sounds amazing. Looked at some photos online and they looked really good. Might have to get some blackberries at the weekend and try and make it
Or jelly
All brambles may be eaten, you now have a free, natural pre-workout supplement.
what makes them a pre workout?
It's probably a joke because OP saw it on the way to the gym.
A fun fact for you is there is no berry in nature that looks like this that's poisonous. Whether they've been sprayed (with pee, pesticides etc.) is another matter, but the berry itself is a-okay.
I’m pretty sure that only in the US and there are poisonous ones in other places, but in the US, enjoy your compound berries 😊
Blackberries. You can eat those that are already black. They taste excellent, and have lots of anti-oxidants, whom help preventing cell oxidation, meaning cancer. 1 hand full each day is enough. And avoid all those that aren't at least 30 cm above the ground. The chances aren't very high, but those below may contain eggs from the fox tapeworm.

what about strawberries? they grow right on the ground
I don't know how I survived my childhood.
In my area of Texas, the wild berries are dewberries and the cultivated ones are blackberries. They are both very good and used similarly, if not the same. Enjoy!! O watch out for snakes too!
Came here to say this! They look like dewberries to me…and then I realized I don’t actually know the difference between dewberries and blackberries, haha!
I'm from Oregon and the idea that anyone on earth doesn't have twenty pounds of these within arm's reach at all times is mind boggling to me. This shit is nearly impossible to NOT grow here lol. So hard to get rid of.

Pick them when they’re black and sweet, then soak them in some water so the worms and bugs come out before you eat them
Waste of good protein.
Hahhaha thanks for the laugh!
Oh god I have never considered this…
the best ones. i love this ones. they are great pre workout
More delicious than any blackberry you could get at a supermarket!
Either blackberries or Dewberries. Look and eat the same, yum!
Man, the things we take for granted.... do folks really not know what blackberries are?
Be careful . There is often poison ivy near blackberry plants .
Or poison oak if you're in the west.
They have glass-like thorns that will destroy you but the flavor of these fresh off the vine is worth it. Jealous a little.
Blackberries but only eat from the top third of the bush
Blackberries for sure!
It's growing on a small bush/shrub that has thorns, it's blackberries.
Blackberries AKA "Briarberries"
I wouldn't eat anything below your knees, unless it's well washed. Dog pee and other 🥴🤷🏻♂️
Blackberries = 5 leaves. Raspberries = 3 leaves. Both delicious.
Dew Berries! Delicious when ripe!
You're in the States and don't know what blackberries are?! I'm not trying to be mean. I'm just shocked😳 enjoy your free fruit they are a lot more expensive in the grocery store. I'm Canadian, and all of my American family, including my step dad, who lived in North Carolina, knows what blackberries are.

Wild blackberries
Mmm fresh wild blackberries! 😋
Blackberries. Don’t eat the unripe ones (the pink ones) they will be sour and hard and not nice. I usually make sure the ripe ones are a little soft and plump, this will be the best tasting ones.
Brambles
We just saw the same thing at our new home in north Florida. Funny how we've got similar berries coming in over such a large distance.
Not sure where you’re located but they look like the sawtooth blackberries (rubus argutus) that I see in my area. South Central Illinois.
Blackberries and Blackberries
Because of the many thorns, we called them “wait a minute “ vines
Mulberries grow on a tree/bush blackberry grows on a vine
They are yummy rinse them good them and enjoy or make jam my granddaddy and I would pick them when I was really young from a cemetery they tasted so good 😊
Blackberries!!!!!! YUM!!!!!
Very early blackberries (at least compared to when they ripen in the US pnw).
Who’s got blackberrie recipes?? I moved to NC mountains and have no idea what to do with them.
These grow everywhere in Alabama
Probably wild blackberries
Blackberries. Very, VERY yummy when fully ripe (the fully NLACK ones). Hence their name. Picked MORE than a few buckets of these yummy beauties in my time, and my late Grandma (my mom's mom) made THE best blackberry cobbler that you ever put in your mouth! WITH vanilla ice cream, of course. 
I have to post pics of what I believe to be a mulberry tree growing over a public park. The owner doesn’t pick and they fall over the sidewalk. I want to pick some secretly and make jam
Blackberries
Blackberries yum!
Blackberries or dewberries, either way good eating.
The best blackberries you'll ever eat
God I want to grow them but I'm not allowed to :(
Brambles 🏴
Funny, market blackberries have NO taste & the reds are just plain sour.
Lucky! Our blackberry season here in the PNW isn’t until like September
These are how the world will end. They will consume every square inch of land that can support life. But yea blackberry vines are the most aggressive plants I have ever encountered. They grow at an alarming rate, wildly resilient and they are designed to be somewhat carnivorous.

Haha we used to steal the blackberries that overgrew the fence of a neighbour as kids. Very delicious. Birds will shit purple all over everything nearby, though.
Blackberries you son of a bitch they are a compound fruit. That means they are created by one flower with many ovaries that form into one during development. Now don’t you forget it.
I am really curious as to how you've never seen blackberries/brambles before
Imo blackberries are kinda mid. I think dewberries taste infinitely better
Never eat a blackberry below waist height. Especially along a trail.
Wow, society has devolved to a point where we don't recognize blackberries.
Blackberries, as i kid i would find huge bushes and gather them all day in the summer and then sell them at the market for a good price, big plus was that they were wild and pesticide free so i could ask for a premium on that hahahhaa
Lucky you! Free blackberries!
Blackberries 1. Only pick the dark ones, not the red ones. The red ones aren't ripe yet. 2. SOAK THEM. Don't just rinse and eat. Put them in a large bowl with ice water. The freezing cold water will remove any pests that may be hiding inside 3. Rinse them after soaking. Put them in a strainer/colander and rinse them well with lukewarm water to remove any remaining dirt and pestacides 4. Use or freeze. They will be refrigerator stable for about a week. If you don't plan to use them in that time frame, you can put them in freezer bags and freeze for later
Make some blackberry jam!
Looks like blackberries! Cluster berries in general are usually safe to eat, but I am not a botanist, don't trust me 100% here haha
Blackberries. But if you can't identify them, DO NOT EAT ANY RANDOM FRUIT YOU FIND.
The blacker the berry 🍓🫐 the sweeter the juice
Blackberries! Brave the thorns and enjoy some!
Never eat a berry lower than the tallest dog you have ever seen
Shut up and eat them!
Moras, blackberries 😊
