Boysenberry is a cross between blackberry, loganberry and raspberry.
It's a very large bramble fruit with large seeds. The fruit is in deep
maroon color. It turns black when it ripes.

Did you know the domestic pig is unnatural, it is a product of
science. The modern pig or swine are known to have been developed by
the great scientist named Imhotep AKA Aesculapius the father of
science and medicine. He crossbred the animal for king Zoser in KMT
AKA Egypt to eat the garbage and the dead bodies after wars.
