Is a grape a melon?

A grape is considered a berry. But, it has many more similarities to a melon. It has stripe-like veins like a watermelon, it has a less penitrible outer skin than a berry (which in proportion could be an edible rind),and it grows on a vine NOT A BUSH (which berries do). Also, I looked up the definition of a melon, and it said melons are usually a crimson or a deep pink, which grapes are! Just look at the names- strawBERRY, blueBERRY, blackBERRY, raspBERRY- grape. Also, I looked up the science behind melons on wikipedia. It said that melons have a fleshy core (grapes have that much more than berries). It also said the melon genus is Citrullus. Citrullus is latin for desert vines- GRAPES GROW ON VINES! The genus of a creature is the most specific, important part of their realtionship with their kingdom. Therefore, a grape is scientifically a melon- yet it is considered a berry. So if anyone who has read this has the communication: GRAPES ARE REALLY MELONS!

No. Use vegetable oil or corn oil. Since the only point of using oil in cooking is to stop the food from sticking to the pan, there is no real need for expensive or exotic oils.

Seedless grapes are a product of stenospermocarpy. Long word, huh?

It means the flower gets pollinated and the embryo (the seed) starts forming but after a little while, due to a genetic defect, it "commits suicide" and we're left with the grape and only the shadow of a seed inside it. Such grapes are propagated asexually by rooting cuttings or with tissue cultures.

Is a grape a fruit?

Yes. A grape is a berry, in fact it's considered one of the few "true" berries! This is because a berry is anything in which the ovary is completely fleshy and juicy(like the inside of a grape) and the outer covering may be soft, leathery or somewhat hard.

Disregard what the last person said, they must have misunderstood the botanical guides meaning about what makes up a berry. They were correct about the classification requirements, just incorrect about the placement of grape in the classifications. It is indeed a berry.
