I love strawberries! Mmm..such a sweet; yet, calming taste.

Cranberry juice is so good too! Can only stomach one cup at most for a day, but it really does help with cramps. So tasty too. xD

It's a pretty sour juice. XD

Oh yeah, for some reason, bananas are berries too.

It is very sour indeed. :P Though an occasional cup is not bad to me. XD

Bananas are fruit too? Interesting, didn't know that. Certainly makes the berry family more colourful, but they're still quite an odd addition. XD

I think it's the way the fruit grows, hence why it's a "berry".

Ah, I see now. That's a neat way to distinguish them, but true that bananas do grow in a similar way as most berries.

Yes, the banana fruit is a berry. Berries are identified as being many seeded with a fleshy inner layer. So, technically a banana is a berry. And, believe it or not, bananas don't grow on trees! Originally from Asia, the "banana tree" is really not a tree in the true sense. In fact, banana plants have no wood fiber. The banana plant is the world's largest herb and a member of the lily family.

Lovely picture! It makes me hungry :P .

I'm not sure what my favourite sort of berries is, though.
