It's botanically a fruit, but legally a vegetable, so ruled by SCOTUS in Nix v. Hedden, 149 U.S. 304 (1893), which concerned the tomato's classification under US customs regulation.

I have to admit, I came into this thread not expecting a law discussion on tomatoes. I feel unprepared! 🤣

sorry, any "vegetable" that starts off as a flower is a fruit. any other part of the plant (i.e. roots, bark, leaves, etc...) is a vegetable.

Yep.  And I believe a tomato is technically a berry.

Along with watermelons, pumpkins, bananas, grapes, and eggplant, yes.
