The ice plant, also known as the "Carpobrotus edulis," is generally considered a fruit. It is a succulent plant native to South Africa and belongs to the family Aizoaceae.

The "fruit" of the ice plant is a fleshy, edible structure that contains seeds. It is often described as a berry or a fruit pod.

However, it's worth noting that the culinary classification of plants can sometimes vary depending on cultural and botanical perspectives.

In some culinary contexts, the ice plant might be referred to as a vegetable due to its usage in savory dishes or salads.

Nevertheless, from a botanical standpoint, it is more accurate to classify it as a fruit.
