Default Think I found them today....(TPS?)

I've been looking all summer for potato berries from the three types of Fingerling potatoes that I am growing and could never see anything remotely close to what I thought they might look like and wasn't sure if they would just show up on their own without me doing anything to the bloom.

Tonight decided to pulled and dig a few potatoes even though the vines were not dead yet to get some small new potatoes for dinner from some old potatoes that had sprouted this spring and planted them anyway.........and here's what I found. Is this what you call potato berries??
They came from one or the other potato also on the saucer.

Another question I have, the tiny little potatoes still clinging to the root system that are smaller than a dime, is there any reason to try to save those, since I did not get any of the berries from the Fingerlings to try to grow next summer??
