Post #6723585

I have always grown potatoes, but this is the first year that I have tried "Cesar", a potato that I think is of Dutch development.
My potatoes almost always have flowered, but this Cesar is not just flowering, it is producing little clusters of "fruit" (see the attached photo) that look almost identical to some varieties of small Thai eggplants.
My questions are :
Has anyone seen this before (on either Cesar or other varieties)?
Are these "fruit" edible like Thai eggplants?

Thanks for any advice/help.
