Basically, most vegetables are the fruit of a plant.

Some vegetables are the plant, root, stalks, or leaves of the plant. Tomatoes are made so seeds can be spread because it is the fruit of the tomato plant.

If you are regarding to cooking, a tomato is a vegetables. Scientifically, it is a fruit.

Vegetables = Savory Cooking
Fruit = Sweet Cooking

pizzas contain a good serving from all food groups. technically they are healthy.
just it kinda dosnt matter if you are going to consume that much grease and salt on top of it lol

Also, on the inverse side of things, rhubarb (used in sweet things such as jams and pies) is actually a vegetable.


Under your system some common fruits I eat are:
    spinach
    carrots
    Brussels sprouts
    cabbage
    cauliflower
    broccoli
Don't forget celery, that's my favorite "fruit"

ive never once even slightly considered rhubarb anything but a veggie. i dont think anyone ever thought it was a fruit.

I did when I was young, when I had only eaten in cooked in things, before I had seen what it looked like raw

I don't care what you call it, all I care about is that rhubarb's awesome.

They're fruit. I think they're classified as such because they have internal seeds.


Tomatoes don't have pits so they are vegetables.

they are fruits because they are sweet and have actual seeds

They're actually fruits but I still call them vegetables lol



There is a scientific classification for fruit I'm sure. Whatever it is, it should abide by that.

Fruits develop from pollinated flowers and related tissues, and contain seeds
Vegetables are other parts of the plant, such as leaves, stems, or roots.
