Default Chinese Lanterns

I have some Chinese Lanterns that I started from seed this year. I
noticed that after the "lantern" part dries up & falls away, there
appears to be a small tomato-like fruit inside. Are these edible
(either for me or the birds)? Are they related to the tomato family?
The orange lanterns remind me a bit of tomatillos. Thanks

Jacqueline
