I’m always amazed at how many things are classified as “vegetables” when they’re actually fruits. Cucumbers, peppers, eggplant, tomatoes, pumpkins, olives, corn, avocados, and grains. Botanically speaking, a fruit is the part of a plant that develops from a flower and contains the seeds. Vegetables, on the other hand, are the other parts of the plant: leaves, stems, roots. SCIENCE!
