Listen, son, have you ever been in a restaurant with a nice lady and ordered a desert before heading home?

If so, what did you get - cherries, banana and fruits like that, or a tomato?

Listen son ... You been on the cherry beer again?

A tomtato is a fruit. Might not be a desert kind of fruit, but it's a fruit none the less. If I'm in a restauraunt with a nice lady, my wife will probably be asking some tough questions later in which case the genus to which the tomato belongs will be irrelevent. But it would still be a fruit.

Tomato is a veg, just like cucumber and others.

Fruits are cherries, bananas, peaches, apricots etc.

"The U.S. Supreme Court settled this controversy in 1893, declaring that the tomato is a vegetable, using the popular definition which classifies vegetable by use, that they are generally served with dinner and not dessert. The case is known as Nix v. Hedden (149 U.S. 304)."
