Biologically, tomatoes are fruit. Culinarily, tomatoes are vegetables.
Vocally, they’re baritones.
I’ve always heard it’s intelligence that tells us tomatoes are fruit, but wisdom tells to use it like a vegetable in cooking
do you know how this meme or bell curves work? should be the dummy saying vegetable, the majority saying fruit, and the genius (on the right…) saying it’s a vegetable
Guess we just know different people then
Why would the genius say something wrong like that? Tomatoes are fruit - grows on the vine, contains seeds inside it, fruits regularly without destroying the parent plant.
The genius would be saying that because the genius understands that when this question is asked, it only makes sense from a culinary viewpoint, not a biological one
Ones a culinary term, the other is a biology term.
ahem different models for different circumstances.
People who argue that something is a fruit don’t understand what a vegetable is
Tomatos are a made up by Italians to sell more “tomato” sauce.
The effective vibe is much more important than any underlying biology.
Tomatoes are vegetables.
All fruits are vegetables, so everyone is right.
“Vegetables” makes no sense.
Tomatoes, grapes, apples, cucumber, pumpkin, eggplant, mushrooms, all fruits.
I was with you until mushrooms, those ain’t even plants
We are talking about “fruits” here which isnt even a term used to describe plants. Maybe in english, not in german.
mushrooms are not fruits in any sense. Fruiting body is applied colloquially however since spores are not fruits this is also incorrect.
However much like with calling a tomato a fruit, it’s perfectly clear to call the penis loo lookin’ thing a fruiting body and only derranged pedants are bothered by it.
