Are tomatoes fruits or vegetables?
Answers:
FRUIT!
they are a fruit.
Technically their berries.
Technically speaking, they are a fruit, because they are the fruit of a plant and not the plant itself. If you can pick it and the plant still lives to make more, it's a fruit. If you pull up the actual plant and eat it, it's a vegetable. You would also be surprised to know that watermelons are a vegetable.

The U.S. Supreme Court settled this controversy in 1893, declaring that the tomato is a vegetable, using the popular definition which classifies vegetable by use, that they are generally served with dinner and not dessert. The case is known as Nix v. Hedden (149 U.S. 304). Strictly speaking, the holding of the case applies only to the interpretation of the Tariff Act of March 3, 1883, and not much else. The court does not purport to reclassify tomato for botanical or for any other purpose other than paying a tax under a tariff act. However, the USDA also considers the tomato a vegetable[citation needed].
