What is a fruit or vegetable?

Answer 2

A fruit is the bit of a plant that carries the seeds. It is usually "designed" by the plant to be attractive and tasty so the seeds get spread around.

A vegetable is any other bit of a plant that we happen to eat: leaves, roots, stems, flowers etc.

Answer 3

Strictly, a fruit is derived from the ovary of the flower. By this definition, strawberries - for example - aren't really fruit.However, I doubt that many people would believe that strawberries are not fruit.

Perhaps it would be acceptable to say that fruits have developed from part of the flower, and vegetables haven't?

Answer 4
