Potatoes are tubers, I don't think they fit the botanical definition of a fruit. They contain no seeds, for example.

The rest are though. Pumpkins was the one that always blew my mind.

You are correct, but the potato plant bears potato fruits, which are classified as berries. I will clarify that in my comment.
