Tomatoes
Tomatoes - biology -
While tomatoes are botanically classified as "fruit" (defined as fleshy seed-bearing ovaries of a flowering plant) they also qualify as "culinary vegetables" based on their usage. Bell peppers, pumpkins, zucchini, and eggplants have a similar dual status.
So when you and your friend argue over whether a tomato is a fruit or a vegetable -- good news! You're both right.
