Re: Huckleberry
People not from the south have probably not heard of it but, the huckleberry is actually a purplish-black berry that grows on a short stocky bush in the south. The berries are really really sour and not very edible. They are called huckleberries or hartleberries

They are not very tasty by themself but they make a great cobbler.

Yup, I read that it was called hurtleberries in England...and then us Americans mispronounced it to be huckleberries! :)
