@kewpie saidActually peppers are fruits, everything with seeds are classed as fruits regardless of how we use or see them.
Beets.
Red cabbage.
Tomatoes.
Red bell pepper.
Radish.
Red chili pepper.
Radicchio.
Red leaf lettuce.
I'd call some of these purple rather than red, but chili and bell pepper are undeniably red and vegetable. I notice they think tomato is a vegetable.

@fmf saidI lean to tomato being a vegetable because the juice I drink (V-8) is called vegetable juice over here. It's mostly tomato juice. If you have an issue with this, please contact the company that makes it rather than getting abrasive with me.
Get off the sofa, get rid of the remote control, get rid of the smart phone, and try out some recipes that question your prejudices about the use of tomatoes.
In the future I'll refrain from responding to your posts. Having lost quite a number of debates to me and others here, it's becoming clear your responses are the result of a personal nature, rather than objectivity.
One last thing: Please try Susan Polgar's Chess Tactics for Champions. It's perfect for someone at your level who's been here for 17 years and has yet to rise above the novice category. 🙂

@very-rusty saidI have no idea, but ketchup is nice.
C'mon can't we call it a fruit as well as a vegetable?

@mchill saidWith the exception of legumes, vegetables don't have seeds.

@very-rusty saidNo, it's a fruit.
Couldn't we class tomatoes as both?
