Is a pumpkin a vegetable?!


Question: It's a fruit and/or veggie...

"If you are speaking in a botanical, scientific context, then pumpkin, tomato, capsicum, cucumber, tomato and squash are FRUITS because they all have seeds. If you are speaking in culinary terms, they can all be properly called VEGETABLES."
