No a fruit is a biologically defined thing right? On the vegetables I'm with you

    The video addresses this. The biological term "fruit" is not accurate for culinary use. Lots of things we eat are biologically fruit, but you'd get weird looks for calling it a "fruit" while eating it. The video gives a lot of examples of botanical-fruit-but-not-culinary-fruit, including cucumbers, peppers, corn, eggplant, peas, pumpkins, and broccoli (specifically the buds).
