Technically fruits are plants babies you know?

If you're going to try to use biology to make an argument, no matter how bad the argument itself is, at least learn the third grade basics.

Fruits are made to be eaten. On purpose. They're not "plant babies" - they're precisely crafted to attract animals like you to eat them, the idea being that the seeds gets dispersed via the animal to a place farther away than the initial parent.

In other words, a plant spends a lot of energy creating a juicy fruit precisely so you can eat it.
