This channel is about fruits and nature. Fruit makes up a large portion of our diets. Did you know that many foods we consider vegetables are actually fruits? The botanical definition of fruit is a seed-bearing part of a flowering plant or tree that can be eaten as food. By those standards, foods such as avocados, cucumbers, squash, and tomatoes are all fruits. From a culinary viewpoint, a fruit is usually thought of as any sweet-tasting plant product with seeds, whereas a vegetable is any savory or less sweet-tasting plant.
