is tomato a vegetable or a fruit?

This is getting a bit boring. The same question is appearing here almost everyday. Of course a tomato is a fruit. No doubt about it. It was a fruit yesterday, is a fruit today, will be a fruit tomorrow and even next week still a fruit. Sorry but I cannot understand where the doubt is. A tomato is at first a flower which is then pollinated and grows into a fruit.

It's vegetable, because we are used to cook it although sometimes eat raw.

It's a fruit. According to wikipedia, "Botanically, a tomato is the ovary, together with its seeds, of a flowering plant: therefore it is a fruit". You can read more about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomato#Fruit_or_vegetable.3F

I think it is a veggie, I wouldn't eat it with a cake. It is acid and to mix it with sweet stuff no thanks. What did you discovered about tomatoes? Do you eat it with your main meal or did you ever tried it with desert?

Well tomato is a vegetable as per cooking but its a kind of fruit
