Is an avocado a fruit or a vegetable?
I kno stupid question but I need to know and I'm too lazy to go look it up and be thrown off by weird results on google. xD
WHO KNOWS THE ANSWER? I know it has a pit so it's probably a fruit but hey -- you never know. I've never seen a banana with a seed, but they're fruits somehow. ^^; Or are they legumes? Hell I dunno. I'm not a nutritionalist...
but I wouldn't mind being one...

Dizzam you're smart. 'Cause lord knows I had no idea. I mean a peach has a pit but it's a fruit. And an avocado tastes vegetablyish and fruitish. But at the same time it reminds me of a potato because of...
I dunno.

As a rule of thumb, fruits have seeds/pits and grow from flowers.
(Though Jazzie and I fought over whether a tomato is a fruit or not. It is!)

Wait so does that make an avocado a fruit?
I don't know if it grows from a flower. T_T I just know it has a pit.

The pear-shaped fruit is botanically a berry, from 7 to 20 centimetres long, weighs between 100 and 1000 grams, and has a large central seed, 3 to 5 centimetres in diameter.
nev mind. I looked it up and it said it was a fruit.

everything that you never think about is always a fruit so I have figured out. A tomato is a fruit and now we have discovered that an avocado is too. sooooo fruits rule. I will never be able to understand how they figure out which it is. cuz a tomato should totally be a veggie. but it isn't. oh well, ;D

Yeah! For some reason I've always known an avocado is a fruit. Although, I've never seen and therefor eaten one...
