Although jalapenos have seeds on the inside, as many fruits do, they are not fruits. Jalapenos are peppers, a subclass of vegetables.

Jalapenos are a part of the pepper family, although many people have heard them to be fruit. Fruits do not need to be sweet, to be a fruit. Jalapenos are vegetables, or they can be whatever you want them to be.

Yes. A jalapeno is a pepper. It contains seeds like any other fruit. Pick one up. Cut it open. And look at the seeds. The fact that it is a seed container makes it a fruit.

Yes. Peppers are technically considered fruit. They are not eaten for dessert like many fruits, but they do contain seeds.
