Spider plants are in the lily family, related to day lilies, which have edible tuberous roots. So, technically spider plant roots should be edible by the definition of being non-toxic. However, I would not recommend eating your decorative house plants.
Culinarily speaking, it would depend on the species of legume and your own personal preferences. If you think of a particular legume as sweet and use it as you would other culinary fruit, then you would call it a fruit; if you use it in a savory vegetable dish, you would call it a vegetable. Botanically speaking, they are either plants in the family Fabaceae or the fruits of these plants (like peanuts, soybeans, lentils, etc.). So yes, they are technically a fruit.
