Is succhini a fruit or vegetable?
Zucchini is a fruit.
Here's why:
* Botanically: Fruits are the mature ovaries of flowering plants, containing seeds. Zucchini fits this definition.
* Culinary: While we often use zucchini in savory dishes, it's not the defining characteristic. Some fruits, like tomatoes and avocados, are also commonly used in savory dishes.
So, while we might think of zucchini as a vegetable due to how we prepare and consume it, botanically speaking, it's a fruit!
