I had a volunteer potato in my garden this year so I just let it do its thing (Completely overshadowing all of my corn but oh well). It flowered and now suddenly there are... berries??? I've literally never seen these before, what are these?

Huh, now I'm curious! These don't look ripe, I'm thinking you would save the seeds of the berries the same way as a tomato. Wonder if it would be like a hybrid plant where the seeds will produce a random plant that might not really grow potatoes, unlike the clones your producing by replanting the tubers.

You'd probably still get potatoes but the size/quality/quantity would be random.
