Fruit
s Some fruits are used and classified as
vegetables.
Fruits are a component of the plant that
contains the seed, according to botany. So if it
comes from a flower, it must be a fruit.
Tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, avocados, okra,
eggplant, olives, water chestnuts, and
peppers are a few examples of fruits that are
used as vegetables or that many people
consider to be vegetables.
The Ke y Distinction:
Flavor
As per Harold McGee (2004), page 963, Among
the few foods we eat that we are designed to
eat, culinary fruits are distinguished from
vegetables by one crucial quality.
Vegetable is derived from the Latin word tegere,
which means to enliven or invigorate.
Fruit is derived from the Latin word fructus,
which has a variety of connotations including
"gratification," "pleasure," "satisfaction," and
"enjoyment."
Classifi cation of

ovaries Example: Strawberry and
