This summer I found this vine with berries growing on a juniper on my place in southeastern Oklahoma. I have searched for identification but haven't found any yet. The berries are marble sized and green with the taste like a cucumber when young. As they mature they turn black and have a somewhat sweet (not really pleasant) taste. Would anyone know what this plant may be and if it is edible? I haven't eaten any yet only just to taste. If they are ok as edible they would be good to put in a salad with all the other minature vegetables.
