This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Biologically, they're fruits, but in culinary usage (like tomato sauce) they're vegetables.

Fruit is a biological term, vegetable a culinary. They are not mutually exclusive

and some fruits, like tomatoes, are vegetables.

Technically, all edible fruits are vegetables; a vegetable is an edible part of a plant.
