A few months late to the argument but….

Vegetable is a culinary term, not a biological term.

Fruit is both a culinary and biological term. The biological term basically just means something with seeds and includes tomatoes, pumpkins, cucumbers, and all sorts of other “vegetables.”

The traditional “fruit” from a culinary perspective is what we mean by the fleshy sweet plant bulbs.
It is important to realize that wisdom and knowledge are not the same thing. Miles Kington offers, and famously repeated by Irish Rugby player Brian O’Driscoll, a light hearted explanation of the difference, “Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing never to put one in a fruit salad” (Kington)!
