I feel like we need a cooking definition of fruits and vegetables vs the scientific ones.
2 u/jpterodactyl 27d ago Which science though? Nutrition and Botany might differ on this one. 1 u/bobo76565657 27d ago My personal way of thinking of it is: Fruit is tangy and/or sweet Smushy with seeds on the outside: Berry. Vegitable is kind of bland. (but healthy AF) 1 u/wazuno48 27d ago This is the unwritten universal definition 1 u/savwatson13 27d ago Vegetable: Or bitter and leafy. I think tomato fits under the fruit of this definition but like, I would never eat it with fruit. I don’t understand 1 u/bobo76565657 27d ago Tomato is a vegitable and I don't care about why it isn't.
