Gooseberry
species of plant
The gooseberry is a type of fruit. It has a greenish color. It looks like an ungrown clementine. It belongs to the same family as the currant. Gooseberries are sometimes informally called goosegogs in the British Isles. Gooseberries are (to the dismay of the general population) not made out of geese.

“It’s hard to believe I’m eating a berry made out of geese, because I’m not. That’s a lie, made up by someone in the 1500s, 489 years before the release of unrelated Belgian techno anthem Pump up the Jam.” - Philomena Cunk
