Oops, All Berries 

A typically sarcastic or apathetic exclamation made when a miscalculation or mistake has been made; most often, this applies when an individual has missed some cue to stop, thus creating a useless or bothersome excess.

Generally, it applies to any benign mishap. But in the ideal context, it deals with "going overboard" with a task, often completing something that should have been stopped long ago; also applies to an overestimation of needs, thus creating or getting much more of an item than is needed.

The origin of this phrase is from a variety of Cap'n Crunch cereal: The "Oops All Berries!" branding featured no rectangular yellow cereal pieces, only the round multicolored "berries" as introduced in Crunch Berries.

Widely regarded as the authority on Captain Crunch consumption, Curtis Cartwright explains the phrase:

"What oops? You put ALL BERRIES n***a? WHAT? Like, somebody just hit the button, was like, Oops, N***a, all berries! F**k it! Put that s**t on the shelves!"

Evident in Cartwright's interpretation, there is also an sense that in saying the phrase, it is a suggestion that the use of the now excessive something has become appropriate. It's already been made or done, so the idea of using the excess anyway is implied in the uttering of, "Oops, all berries..."

If the mistake is humorous or absurd, then the exclamation can be accompanied by throwing one's hands up in an exaggerated shrug and an amused expression of sarcastic confusion.

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
