I always thought a tomato was a fruit, but when you cooked it, it became a vegetable.

 

Holy metamorphosis batman!

Tomatoes are both fruit and vegetable.

 

Pizza crust is grain, sauce is fruit and vegetable, cheese is dairy, pepperoni is meat, and of course there is also the fatty oils.

Grease is what makes pizza ****ing delicious.

No, the tomato is a fruit. But its how we use them that really determines what we think of them. You wouldn't put tomato in your fruit salad would you? And to screw things up even more strawberries, raspberries.... aren't berries at all, but the banana is a berry

 

By technical definition, a berry is a fleshy fruit produced from a single seed. The strawberry, however has its dry, yellow "seeds" on the outside (each of which is actually considered a separate fruit). True berries, such as blueberries and cranberries have seeds inside. However, the banana fruit is a berry for the same reason strawberries are not.

 

There is a theory that strawberries were named by 19th century children who picked the fruit, strung them on grass straws, and sold them as "Straws of berries".

Scientifically, it's a fruit. Nutritionally, it is a vegetable.

Scientifically, it's a fruit. Nutritionally, it is a vegetable.

What the hell are the demands for a scientificial vegetable and a nutritional vegetable and why the hell are these different in the first place?

What the hell are the demands for a scientificial vegetable and a nutritional vegetable and why the hell are these different in the first place?

 

From Wikipedia:

 

Botanically, a tomato is a fruit: the ovary, together with its seeds, of a flowering plant. However, the tomato has a much lower sugar content than other fruits, and is therefore not as sweet. Typically served as part of a salad or main course of a meal, rather than at dessert, it is considered avegetable for most culinary purposes.

Tomatoes are both fruit and vegetable.

"Pizza is a vegetable" is the next Internet Meme.

 

 

About

 

“Pizza is a Vegetable” is a catchphrase satirizing a bill put forth by United States House Republicans that would categorize tomato paste on pizza as a vegetable.

 

Origin

 

On November 14th, 2011, The Associated Press published an article about a spending bill put forth by House Republicans on the Appropriations Committee that would attempt to undermine efforts by the Obama administration to improve the nutritional value of public school lunches. The article revealed that part of the bill would protect the status of tomato paste on pizza as a vegetable.

The spending bill also would allow tomato paste on pizzas to be counted as a vegetable, as it is now. The department’s proposed guidelines would have attempted to prevent that. The changes had been requested by food companies that produce frozen pizzas, the salt industry and potato growers. Some conservatives in Congress have called the push for healthier foods an overreach, saying the government shouldn’t be telling children what to eat.

On November 16th, a thread titled “Congress declares pizza a vegetable” reached the front page of Reddit and accumulated over 1,200 up votes within a week. The earliest known image macro was posted by Redditor Wings144 the following day titled “Scumbag Congress…”

Tomatoes are both. Arguing against it is like arguing the sky isn't blue because it is sometimes red.

 

Only the ignorant masses have created the concept that fruit and vegetables are two different things that cannot intersect. It is comparable to the relation of a hammer and steel; a hammer can be made out of steel, but not all hammers are steel, and not all steel is made into hammers.

New picture that went viral on the web.

22 year old student Charmian Chen has lately turned into global internet star post holiday photos of her feeding a monkey going viral. Chen who also happens to be a model was feeding macaques when one of them wanted to pick up the piece of corn which fell inside her top.

While struggling with the monkey, Chen’s dress was pulled a little too down leaving the model struggling for maintaining her modesty.

These photos of Chen made headlines across the world as well as her native country thereby turning the student as an internet star. Chen’s pictures which had been clicked during her visit to Bali’s Sacred Monkey Forest Ubud have appeared on several forums and blog sites in Europe, Britain and the United States.

Chen stated that she was on a vacation and the photos initially appeared funny but post returning home in Taiwan there were several people who wanted to add her in their friend list on Facebook.

She found it quite strange but was taken aback when one told her about seeing her picture.
