7 / 9. Why is an aubergine not a fruit?

Georgia Kemp, correct. They are a fruit, as they grow from a flowering plant and contain seeds.

Aubergine is a fruit.

Allison Aspden, A fruit is the result of sexual reproduction. A vegetable is vegetative.

4/9. I found this a strange quiz. Are some of the things mentioned, really vegetables?

It’s simple guys! If it comes from a flower, it’s a fruit. Usually. 😉

I don't know the botanical definition of fruits vs. vegetables vs.nuts. If I can cook it with savory seasonings on it, I think it's a vegetable. If I can cook it with butter and sugar and cinnamon I think it's a fruit!

Not bad not bad. Not good not good as far as I am concerned.

7 / 9 not bad but I disagree with the aubergine being a vegetable. It is quite obviously a fruit.

I don't know which botanist classified these vegetables as fruits, but I'd like to see what the grocery people think!!!
