Belgium could be the berry capital of the universe.
I don’t know that for a fact …
I’m just guessing.
Normally I abstain from random eating of berries from unknown bushes. Raspberries are obvious. They don’t give me a pause for thought. As for the bright red ones I wasn’t sure, but after observing the person next to me picking stems of them, I gave them a chance.
The same with the black ones which are called currants.
A nearby cherry tree was in season too.
Only it required a ladder to get to them.
What’s even more dangerous than eating unknown berries?
That would be climbing a rickety ladder to get to them.
The alternative is driving to buy them in the store.
While not as fresh and equally not free (not to mention the gas) …
They are safe.

I'd trust the pretty cherries in your first photo, but I'd stay away from the ladder!
I do not think our ancestors worried about eating ripe fruit. Just make sure it is now where that has been sprayed.
