what it is a tomato?

Question

fruit or vege?

Answer 1

Officially it apparently is a fruit, something to do about it seeds.
However I see it as a veggie, I dont eat it as a dessert which is what most people see the fruits ending up.

In 1893 , the Supreme Court ruled that the tomato must be considered a vegetable, even though, botanically, it is a fruit. Because vegetables and fruits were subject to different import duties, it was necessary to define it as one or the other. So, tomatoes were declared to be a vegetable given that it was commonly eaten as one. (Source: The Packer, 6/9/90)
