are the fruits edible?

Yes, the fruits are edible, but definitely an acquired taste. Not exactly what you'd call 'delicious'!

hi
apparently you can eat the fruits but i am told they are insipid when eaten raw...
not sure what that means

I just swallow them and they leave a nice aftertaste, the inside if the red jelly seed is woody and unpleasant so don't chew. You could squash it through a tea strainer but you wouldn't get much for your time. Nice for a garnish on a sweet though...
