Technically, green peppers, zucchini, cucumbers, and tomatoes are all fruits.
But don't try telling that to the U.S. Supreme Court. Per the 1893 case Nix v.
Hedden, the court decided tomatoes were veggies and therefore subject to
the vegetable tariff. The Supreme Court's reasoning? Tomatoes have to be
vegetables because they're usually served with dinner, not dessert.
