What actually constitutes a vegetable? I heard it was not having seeds. Just the taste can't make it a veggie, nor the pH, because that's innacurate.

Vegetable is like "vegetative matter" which is like leaves, roots, and stuff like that. I think that's where they're headed. Fruits, like the byproduct of reproduction, are like seeds, berries, and large fruits like apples or watermelons, or even corn.

So what do you think? Are you outraged? Do you prefer one to the other?

I'm not a big fan of veggies. The whole vitamins and antioxidants, as healthy as they are, don't really pull me over to the dark side.

Fruits:
Bananas
Strawberries
SOME apples
Berries (except blueberries)
Mandarin oranges
Clementines

Vegetables:
Corn
Tomato SAUCE
Lettuce
Potatoes
Carrots- RAW ONLY

That's about it.

Oops Tomato=fruit Go figure more nutrition than green beans...

They say the more 'processed' a tomato is, i.e. canned, preserved, stewed, ect., the more Lycopene (the heart-healthy portion of tomatoes) can be absorbed by the body.

Anyone know why?

I remember when my parents told me if i eat carrots i could see in the dark when i was little. I was scared of the dark at the time so id eat SHIT loads of carrots and expect to see in the dark. I was very pissed off when i found out they were lying to me. Its like popeye claimin spinich (sp?) makes you super strong

STOP WITH THE LIES! :(

I love fruits and vegetables.

In fact, it is apart of my job to like them..
..hehe.

I get to juice them.

My favorite juice right now is:
apple, pear, cucumber, ginger, lemon, carrot.

ALL fruit except the carrot and ginger(which is a root)....

Yum :)

I like fruits but I'm not as big of a fan when it comes to the veggies. Probably cause my parents forced them on me :)

Don't knock it till you try it, carrot juice is really sweet.

Green beans are a legume I think.

I like some veggies, like taters and broccoli

Fruit has seeds, vegetables don't.

Coffee "beans" are not beans, but are seeds and therefore, amazingly, coffee is in fact a fruit, as any botanist will tell you!

A marrow is also a fruit. Rhubarb is a veg. Annoying isn't it?

Incidentally, raspberries and strawberries are not berries, but a banana is a berry.

Sobe is crap, totally full of nasty ass crap. Not good for you at all.

I drink real juice straight out of the juicer baby. No additives, nothin', just straight up organic produce.

I always thought fruits had "seeds on the inside". Vegetables don't - celery, lettuce, broccoli etc. But to say vegetables don't have seeds is patently ridiculous.

I tend to be a little bit of a thread jacker myself at times. So it's all good.

I love taters too!

For breakfast this morning I went to this dank restaurant and got this dish that was tandoori tofu with spicy yukon gold tomatoes...and peas..and all kinds of other weird stuff...and it was so dank.

I have some leftover.

I think it's time to heat that biatch up.

I also got hasbrowns with it.

Dayum I love my potatoes.

Well, an element in carrots, keratin improves eyesight, but you have to eat an excessively HUGE amount of carrots to raise keratin levels enough to notice a slight change in eyesight, but it's a lot of carrots.

If you eat too many carrots, especially as a kid, your skin takes on an orange glow from keratin buildup- not harmful, but funny looking. As you age, your body improves its ability to digest keratin, resulting in less of an orange pigment.

Fruits have seeds inside them; vegetables are every other part of the plant.
