    Italians need to realize that they don’t own the concept of putting toppings on a round piece of bread. And tomatoes aren’t even native to Italy so that throws a wrench into their ability to complain.

          Otoh the fruit/veggie dinstinction is from culinary tradition and has nothing to do with botanical sciences.

            I don’t particularly mind the culinary fruit/vegetable definition, but feel like sweet fruits/savory fruits/vegetables would have been clearer.

            That’s interesting.

            It’s like how peanuts are legumes and not nuts. But I feel like that makes sense because of the pods.
