BERRY TIME...
The blackberry is an edible fruit produced by many species in the genus Rubus in the family Rosaceae.
Very thorny!
Blackberry fruits are red before they are ripe, leading to an old expression that "blackberries are red when they're green".
The seeds contain oil rich in omega-3 (alpha-linolenic acid) and omega-6 (linoleic acid) fats as well as protein, dietary fibre, carotenoids, ellagitannins, and ellagic acid.
Folklore in the United Kingdom tells that blackberries should not be picked after Old Michaelmas Day (11 October) as the devil (or a Púca) has made them unfit to eat by stepping, spitting or fouling on them.
There is some value in this legend as autumn's wetter and cooler weather often allows the fruit to become infected by various molds such as Botryotinia which give the fruit an unpleasant look and may be toxic.
Have a lovely day and as always, THANK you for your time, M, (*_*)
