>I only even remember this because of an argument I had many years ago regarding whether a tomato was a vegetable or fruit. I chose the veggie side, but had no real evidence. Come to find out, after researching, the Supreme Court agreed.
Does anyone else remember when Congress told everyone that pizza was a vegetable? Haha. Good times.
- coremoff 5y agoWithout meaning to defend it too much, as I believe it's mostly a marketting/lobying thing... As I understand it, the issue was whether or not you could count a pizza towards your vegetable quota. The argument came down to the nutritional content of the tomato sauce on the pizza; nutritionally, this was very similar to the requirements for other things that can be classified as vegetables, and so one portion of pizza was deemed to also count as one portion of vegetables.
