Is the Tomato a fruit or a vegetable?

[ChibiGoose]

A tomato.
Red, round, and juicy. A fruit.

What makes it a fruit?
- It has seeds, which can be used to grow more tomatoes.
- Tomatoes grow above the ground, not on or below.
- They grow on a vine, tree, or bush.

However, when used in cooking they can be called a vegetable, as they are used in savoury cooking, and less in sweet foods.

In English pl0x?

*high fives*

Have u ever seen a tomato in a fruit salad? 'nuff said

Ummmmmm, not everything in a fruit salad is a fruit.

A tomato should be considered a vegetable plus a fruit since it is used in Foods and Drinks that are sweet!

Yep

To answer this, I present a few words of wisdom:

All of this is true, but with what I said, it just seems like a thing that could be a vegetable.

junk food

*thumbs up*

Nooo.... why must you do this to me.... I don't want to start this argument againnnn... ;-;

3rd grade all over again, eh? Seriously, this is what all people would talk about then.............

As much as I think of it as a vegetable, logic says fruit. But to me, it just looks like a vegetable, tastes like a vegetable, and is a vegetable.

It just seems like one of those things that is probably a vegetable

I seriously don't understand at all how a tomato can be a vegetable.

Grows on a vine.

I really wouldn't call it tryharding as he is making a point which is a VERY good thing that he does on the forums.
