Used to get them when I grew taties on the allotment, think they are poisonous, so just get rid of them, potatoes are part of the deadly night shade family

They are the natural seeds from the potato flowers and yes, you mustn't eat them.

as others have said they are  toxic

After potato plants flower, some varieties will produce small green fruits that resemble green cherry tomatoes, each containing up to 300 true seeds. By finely chopping the fruit and soaking it in water, the seeds will separate from the flesh by sinking to the bottom after about a day (the remnants of the fruit will float). All new potato varieties are grown from seeds, also called "true seed" or "botanical seed" to distinguish it from seed tubers. Potato fruit contains large amounts of the toxic alkaloid solanine, and is therefore unsuitable for consumption
