 In the name of sportsmanship, let's consider one more way to look at
 fruits and vegetables.  "According to L.H. Bailey, a vegetable is in
 horticultural usage, an edible herbaceous plant or part thereof that
 is commonly used for culinary purposes.  In common usage, the fruits
 of the tomato, cucumber, squash, etc., are considered as vegetables,
 grown with other vegetables in the home garden, although of course
 each one is a seed bearing organ and hence, under strict usage of the
 language, might be considered a fruit." It is also as popularaly
 understodd, any plant cultivated for its edible parts.  This loose
 definition includes roots (beet and carrot), tubers (potato), stems
 (celery), leaves (lettuce), flower buds and heads (cauliflower),
 fruits (tomato), and seeds (peas, beans, corn).

 Looking back to the list, we can easily slip into familiar habits:
 artichoke, asparagus, avocado, bean, beet, broccoli, brussels sprouts,
 cabbage, carrot, cauliflower, celery, corn, cucumber, eggplant,
 lettuce, onion, parsnip, pea, pepper, potato, radish, squash, and
 tomato are vegetables, all the others are fruits.

 In other words, if you call it a vegetable, and your neighbour calls
 it a vegetable, and your local grocer calls it a vegetable, then it
 must be a vegetable. You like the sound of this? Fine with us. And,
 deep in our hearts, we suspect that's the best way to play, according
 to Hoyle.
