A lime is a citrus fruit just like an orange. The tomato does not belong in that trio because while it is a fruit, it is not a citrus fruit.

i think, because its a citrus.

Oranges and limes are both citrus fruits. The tomato is also a fruit, but most people consider it to be a vegetable.

Yes. Here's an article on it:

Yes it is in the same group as lemons, and oranges. A citrus fruit.

yes, as it's a citrus like oranges and lemons. i wouldn't classify it as any type of vegetable.

you no wat? it is a fruit because lime cant be a vegetable just think bout it it just doesnt go u no wat i mean? so most likely it is a fruit mostly because its citrus like oranges and lemons. so yah i think it is a fruit.

hope i helped

what else would it be?

The tomato doesn't belong. All 3 are fruits from a botanical perspective, but tomatoes are primarily used as vegetables so for culinary purposes they are vegetables.

Yes, I would say so.

yes

yes

yap! it is. both orange and lime are citrus fruits.
