Correct. Also, avocados are vegetables: > 2. A plant raised for some edible part of it, such as the leaves, roots, fruit or flowers, but excluding any plant considered to be a fruit, grain, or spice in the culinary sense. > 3. The edible part of such a plant. The culinary sense of fruit referred to above is: > a sweet, edible part of a plant that resembles seed-bearing fruit, even if it does not develop from a floral ovary Note that avocados are not sweet, so they are not fruit in the culinary sense, and therefore are vegetables in the culinary sense.
