Bananas are Actually Berries
Although we often consider them a fruit, bananas are botanically berries. In the botanical world, berries are defined as fruits that come from flowering plants with multiple ovaries and contain their seeds internally.
The small black dots in the well-known Cavendish banana will not produce a plant if you plant them. However, wild banana species do contain larger seeds in their flesh. Similarly, pumpkins, melons, tomatoes, and cucumbers can be considered berries.
