A true berry is defined, in botanical terms, as a simple fruit developed from a single ovary of a single flower, containing one or more seeds embedded in a fleshy pulp. This strict classification includes fruits that might surprise us, such as grapes, tomatoes, cucumbers, and even bananas. These fruits all come from flowers with a single ovary and have their seeds enclosed within a fleshy body, making them true berries by scientific standards.

However, in the culinary world, the term “berry� is used more loosely to describe any small, juicy, and often sweet fruit, regardless of its botanical structure. This includes fruits like strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries, which are not true berries in the botanical sense.
