Do you have a favorite fruit?

<< < (4/4)

Jeff Wrangler:
The farmer family that runs the farmers' market where I buy sweet corn has developed a variety of strawberry that produces all summer, so it's possible to enjoy locally grown strawberries all summer. I had some last week, and they were very good, nice and sweet.

I've added a poll to Jeff's question. I realize that tomato is not a veggie, but a fruit, though most people use it as a veggie.

What a good idea!

I guess you could also say that corn (maize) is a grain, not a vegetable, but I guess most Americans anyway treat it as a vegetable.

Front-Ranger:
Thanks, Jeff. In botany there's no such thing as a vegetable, I've heard. Plants are classified as stalks, roots, leaves, fruit, or seeds. Vegetable is a portmanteau term. Or is it an umbrella term?
