Interesting looking rhubarb, looks more like a berry of some kind

  Hard to tell from the photo but that ‘berry’ is about the size of a football.

Pretty incredible rhubarb. Is it edible after cooking?

  I have no idea, Lou. I’ll have to do a little research on that one.

  After a little research, Lou, I discovered that the stem and leaves are not edible but roots are and the plant is also used for dying fabrics.
