fruit, botanically, means the fleshy growth around a plants seed, or around the reproductive vector of said plant. culinarily, they are any sweet botanical fruit. vegetable is referring to any edible part of the plant
My teacher in gardening academy had clear definition of what is fruit and what is vegetable. "If it grows on wood it is fruit with strawberries being exception."
America has a lot of things like this where the government insists upon something that is technically wrong. The state of Indiana, where I live, legislated the value of pi to exactly 3.
Ah, sorry my dad activity enforced the "fruit" definition as we were growing up. That and z'Oh'-ology He insisted that it was properly pronounced that way, and there are only two "o"s in the word. Still, things change, and I'm old. LOL

Edit: grammar
Imagine unironically ignoring the definition of fruit just because a government told you to.
legality over literally the designation of a food item is idiotic at its core
Godās greatest mistake. Thatās what Tomatoes are.
It took Italians destroying their form and overloading the goop with herbs and spices to correct this affliction upon this world.
and remember! In California, a bee is now a fish!
Literally just a fruit. I find it so stupid that you're trying to insinuate what the law says changes anything. idiot.
People dont believe me when i say this, but i also have never explained it as well as he did. I just pull it up on google and say āsee?!ā
You are spot on…..
You should have your own channel on TV. Class up the History Channel or the Food Network.
Anything bearing seeds is a fruit. Every other part of the plant is a vegetable. Herbs are leaves of the plant, but still technically a vegetable.
Technically a fruit.
Functionally a vegetable.
Like many other plants, apparently.
Lol. Laws are imaginary and often wrong.
