Is a zuchini a fruit or vegetable?

Answer 1

I worked in a farmers market and I've noticed that in most grocery stores, it is found in the vegetable section because that's what it is considered by most people. However, following this new rule that anything with seeds is a fruit, I guess that's what it technically is because it does have seeds on the inside. So the most common answer is vegetable, but the correct answer is fruit.

Answer 2

Zucchini is a one of the Squash family of plants and squashes are fruit.

However zuccini is usually cooked as served as a vegetable.

Answer 3

A zucchini is classified as a vegetable, even though it develops from a flower and contains seeds. In culinary terms, it is treated and used as a vegetable.
