3. Tomatoes
Yes, the age-old debate is going to be settled right now: tomatoes are a fruit! Just as a little tip, if it has seeds, it is a fruit. If it does not have seeds, it is classified as a vegetable. Tomatoes are such a delicious summertime fruit. You can eat them by themselves, add them to a salad, or even use them to make a fresh tomato sauce. However you choose to eat them, we know they will be so tasty!
