    I LOVE AVOCADOS. I eat 5 a week usually.

    I'll play . . . it's a fruit/berry.

    From wikipedia:

    "Avocado or alligator pear also refers to the fruit (botanically a large berry that contains a single seed) of the tree."

    A fruit - a large berry with a single seed.
    Same as tomato is a fruit with several seeds.

    Fruuuuit. So are bell peppers, tomatoes and zucchini. And while I'm at it, bell peppers have much more vitamin C than oranges do.

    Scientifically speaking, it is the ripened, seed-bearing ovary of a plant, thus (in botanical terms) it is a fruit. It also comes from a tree and can be used in fruit applications (some desserts etc), so many consider it a fruit.

    It is often considered a vegetable (in its culinary aspect) as it has many savory applications.

    So it is both a fruit and a vegetable.

    Fruit, and a delicious one at that. Love it with cottage cheese or smoked salmon.
