Is tomato a fruit or a vegetable ?


assistant
Tomatoes are both a fruit and a vegetable. It is considered as a fruit by botanists because it grows from a flower and contains seeds. It is considered as a vegetable by nutritionists because it does not contain as much fructose as other fruits like oranges or apples and consequently they are not served in many cultures as deserts but rather as a first dish and cooked in a second dish.
