A fruit is a part of plant - like a stem, or a leaf, or a petal - rather than necessarily being something suitable for human consumption. There are therefore many, many, many more fruits that can't be eaten than those which can. Some obvious examples are the fruit of the deadly nightshade, or belladonna, plant should not be eaten, for reasons obvious from its name. The fruit of the datura should not be eaten for similar reasons.
