That part is true. But this means you also can't taste awesome things like ice cream, candy, or pizza.

[livvy]

Like cooked carrots. :sick01: They're just too mushy. I don't like tomatoes in any form. They're one of the few fregetables that I can say I honestly don't like.

[Noog]

Tomatoes are fruit, Livvy :P

 

The ongoing argument about tomatoes continues.

[CAV of Gang Green]

I always thought of tomatoes as a vegetables, but I couldn't care less. Tomatoes are food. End of story. Done. Let's move on with our lives.

[livvy]

They always show up in the vegetable category of the cheesy food pyramids they showed us as kids! They must be vegetables. D=

 

But given that the definition of fruit is the part of the plant that stores the seeds, then tomatoes must be fruit.

 

So if tomatoes must be fruits, and tomatoes must be vegetables, the only logical conclusion is that they are fregetables. :P

[Noog]

Nevermind. I realized that corn is also a tolerable cooked vegetable.

 

Are beans vegetables? Those are good too.

[livvy]

Corn would be intolerable uncooked. One of the few.

 

Beans are technically legumes. They're not vegetables because they're not "other parts" and they're not fruits because they're not the part that holds the seed. They are themselves the seeds.

[Noog]

Legumes, whatever. Peanuts/beans can be vegetables if they want to :P

[livvy]

Haha. :P

 

Baby bean: Mama, I wanna be a vegetable when I grow up!

Mama bean: I'm sorry dear, you're a legume.

Baby bean: But I wanna be a VEGETABLE!!

Noog: Okay, you can be a vegetable. :D

Baby bean: Yay!

 

EDIT: Oy, reading that now, I realize that I'm just not that funny (or awake) at 3 in the morning. xP Bed time for Livvy. 'night all!

[Domino]

I enjoyed that, Livvy. I've always wondered what was going on with beans. Quite an odd fruit/vegetable/legume. I associate them with the little poem.

 

Beans, beans, the magical fruit.

the more you eat, the more you toot

the more you toot, the better you feel,

so lets have beans at every meal!!

 

Maybe that's why I kind of associated beans with fruits, even though they definetly DONT go together.

 

(wow. I'm glad I make sense today. NOT)

[antiaircraft]

Since when did the off-topic board become a scientific classification centre? :P

 

Incidentally, my little brother absolutely hates tomatoes - he can't eat them no matter what. Oddly enough, he doesn't mind tomato sauce. xD

[Unstream]

Haha yeah, strangely, I know a lot of people like that. They hate tomatoes but then always smother their fries and stuff in ketchup.

 

Yeah, tomatoes and cucumbers and stuff like that are considered fruits, but they're used as vegetables during cooking.

 

Last I checked too, corn isn't a vegetable. It's a grain :P

[jumpingbeans]

I don't care what anybody says, tomatoes are cucumbers are scientifically fruit, not vegetables or legumes.

And by the way, legume is french for vegetable.

[ΩCCΩ]

I love almost all fruits and vegetables, but at the same time I like everything to be in its place. Examples include putting pineapples in fruit or eating it alone but NOT as a topping for pizza. XD

[jumpingbeans]

I don't even like pineapples...but I do love pizza

[Wembly]

Most vegetables and fruits taste badly cooked. Tomatoes are one of the only exceptions.

Unless you are like me and manage to be allergic to the skins/outsides of most fruits and vegetables so if I want to eat them I have to cook them. So clearly I enjoy them cooked.

[jumpingbeans]

I didn't know it was possible to be allergic to fruit and vegetables peelings!

[-Ryan]

I hate most red berries, vegtables(spelling?), and fruits. I like apples though. :yes:

[ΩCCΩ]

I hate red apples, too sweet for me. I love pineapples though. :D

[-Ryan]

I can't stand pineapple. Bleh.

 

Even pineapple flavored stuff is extremely gross to me. o.o

[CAV of Gang Green]

I used to like green apples, but I started to get eye irratation. I'm sure it's not an allergy, but it still hurts like heck. I eat red apples now.

 

Pineapple soda is good. Everything else pineapple is gross.

 

I love green grapes. So sour....so good....

[ΩCCΩ]

*eye twitches* Hate. Sour. Grapes. I like pineapples but not pineapple flavored stuff cuz it tastes so bad.

[-Ryan]

I love sour grapes. :O

 

Random, but I just almost killed my character in a game. Note to self, stop jumping off of guard towers. There are other ways to escape.

[ΩCCΩ]

Like using a parachute? Which game consoles do you have? I have a gameboy advance (pink, used to be a pink freak), a lilac PSP and a PS2.

[-Ryan]

No. I just used the ladderand got up onto the roof of a guard tower then jumped off.

 

I'm playing Morrowind on a regular X-box. :P Ever heard of this game or Oblivion? :O

And I have an X-box, DS, and Wii. :P
