Smooth of you to slip tomato in there. I happen to agree with its inclusion in the fruit category, but I wonder if you aren't doing a little troll fishing there... LOL

If you're in a science class, it's a fruit. It makes sense in that context, where the definition is based on its botanical properties.

If you're in a kitchen, it's a vegetable. It makes sense in that context, where the definition is based on its culinary properties.

Einstein described it as fruit-vegetable duality.

Or maybe wave-particle fruitality?

Even if you are not in a kitchen. When you take/get offered a piece of fruit you expect a banana or an apple or somethng.

Not only in the kitchen, but there is a difference between the biological and the eating/tasting/culinary definition of a fruit and a vegetable.

In biology, a fruit contains a seed (this includes pumpkins and cucumbers too), while a vegetable is any edible part of a plant (including fruits like a banana, seeds like an almond, roots like a carrot, leaves like a cabbage...)

When it's for eating, fruits are generally eaten raw and as a sweet dish, when vegetables can be either raw or cooked, but more often as a starter or with the main dish.

Biologically, yes, a tomato, among other plants, is considered a fruit. That doesn't mean that I won't get mad when my fruit tart comes with kiwis, raspberries, eggplant and jalapeños.

Got 100% but had to make guesses for the beret one. How weird that olive branch is nearly the least guessed ! You dont have to be religious to know that ( same with the apple of adam and eve, perhaps even moreso, because there are sayings like extending an olive branch)

That question is probably the only reason that "poisoned apple" is guessed by 99% of people because they tried to answer question 3. Also the fact that apple usually comes to mind first when thinking of fruits, so people guess apple when in doubt, is probably another factor.

Gazpacho is made up of many ingredients, of which tomato is only one. In fairness to QM, it is usually the only fruit present, but not the principal component. My attempt to justify not getting the answer.

I also never thought of coconuts (or any nut at all) as fruits, allthough by definition they are (while coconuts aren't even nuts...)
