It's so weird to me when I hear people describe avocados as fruit. Because they are clearly. But it just feels wrong to me and I don't know why.

Nutty flavor, fatty texture. If someone called them a legume it'd still feel wrong, but less wrong.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago

Yes! This is it this is the one I'm most comfortable with so far.

If you're at all from the US it may be due to use to us teaching that sweet things are fruit and not sweet things are vegetables.

That 90's era food pyramid really fucked up a generation.

Ok, so there's like 2...4...no more than like 10 or 12 exceptions to the rule.

[–] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 3 points 2 weeks ago

No, see cuz you calling it a vegetable just sounds equally weird to me. They're both weird. I don't know why.

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Do you suppose the fact that they're green and savory, instead of sweet has anything to do with it?
