Is a carrot considered fruit or vegetable?

A carrot is botanically considered a root vegetable.

Here's why:

* Fruit comes from the flower of a plant and contains seeds.

* Vegetables are all the other edible parts of a plant, including roots, stems, leaves, and buds.

Carrots grow underground as roots and don't contain seeds. Therefore, they fall under the "vegetable" category.
