    That’s kinda strange, I was taught in school that tomato was a fruit so that’s what I always went with. As to why, I honestly have no idea and wouldn’t be able to argue

      Botanically fruit is basically defined as anything with a seed in it.

      Although I think botanically vegetable is defined as edible plant matter, so strictly speaking all fruits are vegetables but not all vegetables are fruits.
