So come on then, Fruit or Veg?

[Jezza]

Obviously it's a fruit coz it's a pear and it grows on trees and has a big pip..

You trying to pick another fight?

Yours conclusively

PS carrotts are also fruit for as we all know carrotts are the devils favourite fruit..."neither shalt thou eat the fruit of the tree that is known as the carrott tree".

The avocado (Persea americana) is a tree native to Mexico and Central America, classified in the flowering plant family Lauraceae. The name "avocado" also refers to the fruit of the tree with an egg-shapped pit.

The tree grows to 20 metres (65 ft), with alternately arranged, evergreen leaves, 12–25 centimetres long. The flowers are inconspicuous, greenish-yellow, 5–10 millimetres wide. The pear-shaped fruit is botanically a drupe (this term means a fruit with a large stone in the middle), from 7 to 20 centimetres long, weighs between 100 and 1000 grams, and has a large central seed, 3 to 5 centimetres in diameter.

The word "avocado" comes from the Spanish word aguacate, which derives in turn from the Nahuatl (Aztec) word ahuacatl, meaning "testicle", because of its shape

Didnt something bad always happen to the moomins. I seem to remember it being a rather depressing programme as a small child, much similar to eastenders today or dare i say it the southport forum!

[thegazelle]

i'm no good at this fishing thing i was hoping jack black would rise in a wily old trout type way to snatch the mayfly on offer but no he lies dormant in a deep hole or eddy.

having established the fruitiness of the avocado can we all surmise which fruit of vegetable or indeed berry, glupe or gourd the tescomeister had in mind when revealing the shade noir of its seeds . i personally am drawn by the kiwi or chinese goosberry for my vote

[SW]

As its the only other black seeded thing i can think of, I'll say watermelon. Well it could be right?

[Mallorca Alty]

It is a vegatable. We put Avocado in the Mediterrean Vegatable dishes at work

[thegazelle]

ah but you probably put tomatos in that and they are definitely a fruit
