Bananas ARE berries, so are watermelons and tomatoes. But strawberries and raspberries are not berries. Berries have seeds on the inside; a strawberry's seeds

Bananas ARE berries, so are watermelons and tomatoes. But strawberries and raspberries are not berries.
Berries have seeds on the inside; a strawberry's seeds are on the outside, and raspberries are little clusters they are called something else. It's a famous quiz question in the UK :)
- vacri 15y agoIt depends, of course, if you're talking as a botanist or as a cook. It's one of those words with multiple levels of truth. Same with tomato - it's a fruit botanically, but in culinary terms it's a vegetable and definitely not a fruit. As long as you get your context right, you won't have problems communicating :)
