What kind of berries and how could "pre-exit pie" be too nasty?

Intestinal track wasnt all that bad...they actually smell quite sweet..in a warm nasty sense. Where this bear was, there were plenty of wild vine running black berries and rasberries...*(not including hucks)...this was what was in there no doubt.
