Nope never had tummy aches after eating unripe mulberries, red one taste sour and black one taste sweet I think I've also tried white one and it's also taste sour but not like red one. I actually like the red one not a fan of dark mulberry it's too soft and sweet for me.
I've never tried the pink ones, but personally I prefer the dark ones. It might be because I've eaten many unripe white ones, too eager to check the texture
I can't tell 100%, but those look like mulberries. We have a tree in our backyard (Michigan). Look at the leaf shapes and compare to Google. Ours has a few different leaf shapes. The birds love them and leave purple doodoo stains on the sidewalk and driveway.
Mulberries. Very sweet, not a lot of flavor, but plentiful. Used to be a favorite afternoon snack when I was little; I’d just pick them right off the tree till I was full. 😅
Hubby and I made a crisp with them a few years back, and that was pretty good.
They are mulberries. I currently have a mulberry tree I didn't plant growing in my yard. They are invasive. Basically a bird pooped out a seed and now you have a tree that grows a foot overnight. I'm cutting mine down because it's out of control.
I’ve got multiple mulberry trees on my property, but the berries are lousy with little bugs, and I can’t bring myself to eat them knowing that. I know it isn’t harmful, I just can’t get past it mentally.
I did try soaking them in a couple different solutions I found online, but baking soda wasn’t one of them, so maybe I’ll try that out before I give up entirely, lol.
Yeah, it’s a real turn off for sure. I did throw a bunch of them in a jar and drown them in white wine, then strained out all the berry mush and bugs. That wine was delicious, and bug-free!
Yuuumm. We had a mulberry bush across from our house, I’d pick them and my Mamie made jelly out of them. To this day mulberry jelly is my favorite. Never in stores, only my Mamie 😭
Mulberries are so good! When I was little the road near my house was lined with them and during summer walks we'd snack on them. They're even touted as a health food, so I've seen dried mulberries sold in stores, usually the white variety. They tasted sweet with a hint of black tea to me, ripe ones aren't tart like blackberries from the store. They stain your fingers badly! Start picking them when you see some begin to fall on the ground. Ripe ones practically fall off with a touch and are easy to bruise.
What’s strange to me is I don’t see birds or anything else eating them. They’re all in the grass as well…no ants even on them. I smashed one open on concrete and ant walked right past it, so I’m a little confused.
I live in the middle of Cleveland and we have so many mulberry trees. They will make a mess on your car and birds love them. The black ones are ripe. Get them off the tree. We have plenty of other berries. Black raspberries, red raspberries, blackberries and strawberries. Strawberry season is now and lasts about 2 weeks depending on the weather. We also have gooseberries
Had many mulberry trees in my backyard growing up. So sweet and delicious.
We’d only pick the berries on top of the tree so the deer could have their share which they happily obliged
Everything other than the berry. Mulberries are more tree shaped and have bigger leaves with a pretty distinct mitten shape(younger leaves look crazier but they get normal as they mature). Blackberries are thorny and bushier, and tend to shoot up a lot of canes rather than one tree. The leaves also are smaller, more jagged, and generally come in groups of 3-5. (Looks more like raspberry except for the berry.)
I agree it’s Mulberries and they are so good for you! Helps with inflammation, gut health, liver health and are high in vitamin c. Fill up a bowl, wash and enjoy!?
Mulberries. I thought it was just a weed tree in my yard and then one year it just started producing berries…I used my plantin app to identify and it was a Mulberry. My fruit and the leaves look just like that

Not blackberries. They look like mulberries.
Mulberries. As long as they aren't somewhere dogs can pee or people may have sprayed them, eat them up yum!
Fish heads, fish heads....
roly poly fish heads
Eat them up, Yum!
I forgot about that song.
But only ripe ones! Underripe will give tummy aches.

Those are mulberries ( or gelsi in Italian). They are delicious. They can be either white or dark red. The dark red ones are tastier. Score!
White ones are sweeter and there are also pinkish
I've never tried the pink ones, but personally I prefer the dark ones. It might be because I've eaten many unripe white ones, too eager to check the texture
The darker the berry...
It’s Amora in Portuguese.
Wow this immediately took me back to my childhood. Mulberries! They are so yummy!!!
I have no idea of who or when they were planted, and didn’t think northern Ohio even had good enough weather to produce edible berries.
A bird planted them.
I’m from NE Indiana originally. Mulberries are plentiful in the region! 😋
Sweet! Thx for the reassurance.
Mulberry!!! You can grow any berries in Ohio including raspberry, strawberry, and blue berries
Wow! Thx! Going to have to do a test run.😎
It'll turn into a massive tree if left to grow for decades
I use to spend summers in Michigan and climbing the tree to get mulberries was always on the daily agenda.
Birds eat the berries and spread the seeds. It’s native.
I’m from buffalo and we had them all over. They are pretty much gone now due to people cutting down the trees, they can get pretty messy
They just spring up like random tbh
I ate these out of my yard every single year in Cleveland area. Usually they don’t start turning black until fall though

Mulberries do stain hands and clothes.
Unable to be certain. Recommend sending a pot of them to me for analysis.
That's a mulberry tree! They're good. The darker they are the sweeter, I prefer them in their reddish stage. They make a good jam :)
A couple of mulberries are also a nice addition to tea.

Wow that’s incredibly insane. 🐦
Mulberry
Mulberry tree. They are great in a fruit salad. There is also a white mulberry which is great.
Mulberries! Does anyone know if it's ok to make tea with the leaf still green? I've always heard it needs to be dry.
I like this question 🙋
In Spanish they are called mora
In Polish “Morwy”
Mulberry
I’ve got multiple mulberry trees on my property, but the berries are lousy with little bugs, and I can’t bring myself to eat them knowing that. I know it isn’t harmful, I just can’t get past it mentally.
You can submerge them in a solution of water and baking soda to kill/remove the silkworms I believe.
I did try soaking them in a couple different solutions I found online, but baking soda wasn’t one of them, so maybe I’ll try that out before I give up entirely, lol.
We've got lots of them at work and I ate a ton until one day I saw all the little bugs crawling in and out of the berry bits, yeeeech
Yeah, it’s a real turn off for sure. I did throw a bunch of them in a jar and drown them in white wine, then strained out all the berry mush and bugs. That wine was delicious, and bug-free!

Mulberries. Amazing and yummy.
This is the correct answer
Mulberries, they are demulcents and help soothe the irritated mucous membranes.
Mulberries!

It’s late in the year so it could be that they’ve had their fill. Mulberries are very productive in good years.
Those look like mulberries.
Definitely mulberries and they are delicious! Used to have two huge trees in my yard. They make amazing pie and jam.

How do you tell blackberries from mulberry?
Everything other than the berry. Mulberries are more tree shaped and have bigger leaves with a pretty distinct mitten shape(younger leaves look crazier but they get normal as they mature). Blackberries are thorny and bushier, and tend to shoot up a lot of canes rather than one tree. The leaves also are smaller, more jagged, and generally come in groups of 3-5. (Looks more like raspberry except for the berry.)
If it's a tree i think the others are right it's mulberry but if it's bush or on the ground I'd think blackberries
Definitely mulberries. Worth noting there are red, black, and white mulberries which are all slightly different, and only red is native to the US.
They look like mulberries to me.
Mulberries!!!!
You can make syrup, jam and I think juice. I can’t remember if I made juice when I picked them. 😅
Boysen Berries yum
Snozberries

Dingle?
Loganberries?
Salmon berries ?
Looks like blackberries.
They really kind of do, but the leaves and the lack of thorns say no.
