The Difference Between Fruits and Vegetables

READ IT! LEER

Botanically, fruits and vegetables are classified depending on which part of the plant they come from.

A fruit develops from the flower of a plant, while the other parts of the plant are categorized as vegetables.

La fruta se desarrolla desde la flor de la planta

Fruits contain seeds, while vegetables can consist of roots, stems and leaves.

Las frutas contienen semillas, mientras verduras consisten en raíces, tallos o hojas... cebollas, espinacas...

From a culinary perspective, fruits and vegetables are classified based on taste. Fruits generally have a sweet  flavor and can be used in desserts, snacks or juices.

 Las frutas generalmente tienes un sabor dulce, las verduras un sabor suave o salado

Vegetables have a more mild or savory taste and are usually eaten as part of a side dish or main course.

Fruits Often Mistaken for Vegetables

Frutas que confundimos con verduras.

You probably have a pretty good concept of which foods are considered fruits and which are considered vegetables, at least in culinary terms.

However, there are several plants that are technically fruits, though they're often classified as vegetables because of their taste.

Tomatoes are the most well-known and controversial example of this. 

Some other common examples of fruits that are mistaken for vegetables include: 

• Avocados-aguacates
• Cucumbers-pepinos
• Peppers-pimientos
• Eggplants-berenjena
• Olives-aceitunas
• Pumpkins-calabazas
