Help me identify this plant. Grows like a vine, this particular one made itself home in a chain link fence. Has flowers and pods, can someone tell me which contains the seeds?

Maybe a potato vine? #solanum crispum 'glasnevin' or similar?

I think your right. So they are inedible? would those "berries" be the seeds then?

I haven't grown it myself but I'd expect the seeds to be inside those like they are with tomatoes 🤔 but I'm just guessing here

It might be a bittersweet nightshade. Toxic.

I'm just not sure of the vine part. Just be sure

I've been noticing them everywhere now. I live in North eastern Pennsylvania. and they seem to be very weed like here, growing up along with shrubbery. Now seems to be there peak season as they are fruiting and blooming and most plants I've noticed seem quite sizeable now.
