Is a pickle a vegetable or a fruit?!


Question:

Is a pickle a vegetable or a fruit?

Please help, I've been wondering this for a while, I think it might be a vegetable because its made out of cucumbers and those are vegetables, but it could be a fruit too! It has seeds I think everything that has seeds is supposed to be a fruit, I'm confused, please help.


Answers:

a pickle is not something u grow. it's a cucumber, only pickled. it's a process that people put the cucumber through before they sell them as 'pickles'.

a cucumber (answering ur question) is actually a fruit. so are other squashes like zucini and pumpkins.

the reason they r considered fruits, just like tomatoes, is because unlike vegetables, they have seeds on the inside.

this makes them qualified to be a fruit, not a vegetable.

answer: Pickle=vegetable
