Biologically, tomatoes are fruit. Culinarily, tomatoes are vegetables.
Vocally, they're baritones.
Ideally they are makeshift weed pipes
I don't think vegetable sounds right either. No one crushes up broccoli or carrots to make sauce for pizza and you don't add tomatoes to your roast veggies.
People put carrots in pizza sauce, like Rao's: https://www.raos.com/products/pizza-sauce
And roasted tomatoes are great with some peppers and onions.
Tomatos are a made up by Italians to sell more "tomato" sauce.
I see the image must have been cropped off to the right
Ones a culinary term, the other is a biology term.
The problem with the culinary term "vegetable" is that, properly, it applies to any edible part of a plant, and improperly, it's basically a useless distinction.
Knowledge is knowing tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
This is how I always explain the difference between INT and WIS to RPG newbies. It gets the point across really well.
If I ever see one of you fuckers put a tomato in a fruit salad I will shit your pants
It's called salsa.
prosecutors will be violated.
Are you going to go shit in their pants?
do you know how this meme or bell curves work? should be the dummy saying vegetable, the majority saying fruit, and the genius (on the right...) saying it's a vegetable
Guess we just know different people then
Why would the genius say something wrong like that? Tomatoes are fruit - grows on the vine, contains seeds inside it, fruits regularly without destroying the parent plant.
shut up nerd!
The genius would be saying that because the genius understands that when this question is asked, it only makes sense from a culinary viewpoint, not a biological one
Tomatoes are berries, even
The effective vibe is much more important than any underlying biology.
Tomatoes are vegetables.
The left one should say "fruits", while the right one should say "fruit"
I've always heard it's intelligence that tells us tomatoes are fruit, but wisdom tells to use it like a vegetable in cooking
I always heard it as intelligence tells us tomatoes are fruit, wisdom tells us not to use it in a fruit salad.
Salsa is a fruit salad.
Errbuddy wanna talk about tomatoes but the real question is, are bananas fruit? Some varietals are sweet and clearly belong in desserts and fruit salads, some are savory and starchy like potatoes, depending on the culinary tradition you come from they're used in both contexts, and they can and should have seeds but they don't due to selective breeding. Tomatoes exist in an ambiguous state, but bananas are somehow both at all times.
ahem different models for different circumstances.
Technically a fruit, taste like a vegetable.
I argue anyone who doesn't think tomatoes taste like fruit hasn't had a real tomato yet
All fruits are vegetables, so everyone is right.
Even in a culinary sense, tomatoes seem way too acidic for me to ever consider them a vegetable
People who argue that something is a fruit don't understand what a vegetable is
