    I know this is probably a repost but the self-censorship is super annoying and has entered the lexicon in ways that can permanently damage human communication as a whole.

    Yeah sure censor stuff from kid shows but we’re at the point where “unalive” and “pdf file” are being used as code words. Everyone knows what they mean, even the censors.

    I have a simple flowchart to determine what is or isn’t a veggie:

    > Can I eat it? -> Yes -> Does it come from an animal? -> No = Vegetable

    I had always learned if it has seeds (in nature) then it was a fruit, otherwise it was a vegetable or something else

      Many vegetables have seeds.
      Pumpkins are already in the example, but think peppers, legumes

Saying "Honestly bizarre that tomatoes get all the flack for not being a vegetable because they're technically a fruit when: A. There are a ton of fruits that get categorized as vegetables. Like this also applies to pumpkins, squashes, and cucumbers. B. The fucking mushrooms are standing there at the back of the crowd in this witch trial, trying to look inconspicuous because they got into the vegetable club with no fucking controversy, despite the fact they're not even plants.

      You’re correct! “Vegetable” is a culinary term. “Fruit” is both botanical and culinary. The “tomato isn’t a fruit” nonsense comes from people trying to conflate the two; if we called botanical fruits “grunkles” we wouldn’t have this problem.

    A “vegetable” is simply any edible part of a plant. Fruits can therefore be considered a subcategory of vegetables.

    If you really want to get into the nitty gritty, an ear of corn is botanically a fruit, since it’s the seed-bearing body of a plant. But nobody in their right mind would consider corn a fruit.

    Vegetables aren’t real. They made up the classification just to sell things that aren’t fruits.
