Is a mushroom a vegatable or a fruit?

Answer 1

A mushroom is neither a fruit nor a vegetable; technically mushrooms aren't even plants. They are a special type of fungus.

Answer 2

Mushrooms are not vegetables, they are a fungus.

Mushrooms aren't true vegetables or fruits meaning that they don't have any roots, leaves or seeds and they don't need light to grow. They are really a fungus which grows in the dark and releases spores to grow more mushrooms.

Answer 3

A mushroom is not a vegatable or a fruit. A mushroom is a fungus.
