Tomato...Fruit or Vegetable? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ · 10-27-2002, 09:41 PM

Yeah, we all know TECHNICALLY its a fruit, but what do you consider it to be? I still call it a vegetable. I was always taught thats what it is, plus, it just tastes more like a veggie LOl. Fruits are sweet and you can put them on ice cream or put whipped cream on them..vegetables you put salad dressing on. I wouldnt put ice cream on a tomato, nor would I put salad dressing on blueberries!

I always assumed it was a vegetable. It seems strange that it should be a vegetable because it's used in a vegetable manner a lot but the fact is that it's a fruit. It's a strange kind of fruit, though.

Bootsy Whoosh · 10-27-2002, 10:16 PM

Well I guess I sort of think it as a veggie, since it's used in a "veggie" way.

Did you know pumpkins are a fruit? And zucchini? And squash? Etc.... there's all sorts of things we think of as veggies that are really fruits, so really, tomatoes aren't that strange after all...

I grew up with it as a veggie and it's gonna stay a veggie in my mind, even if it's really considered a fruit.

Cactus Jack · 10-27-2002, 11:17 PM

Tomatoes are FRUITS. They don't TASTE like them, but they are because seeds are found IN them, while a vegetable doesn't contain them. They just grow from them. (Yeah, I know--how do you GET the seeds to plant from vegetables, then??

)

Other fruits commonly considered as vegetables:

Pumpkins
Squash, including zucchini
Avocadoes

Corn is not a vegetable, either. It is a GRAIN.
