- Did you know that bananas are berries, but strawberries aren’t? A lot of thought goes into classifying fruits and vegetables, and it all has to do with anatomy.

This is the most mind-blowing SciShow yet. I...I don't know if I will ever have enough recovery time to parse all this new neural rewiring... corn is a fruit, bananas are berries, strawberry seeds are fruits on a receptacle? WHAT EVEN IS GOING ON?
IceMetalPunk I've had a few beers dude, my brain just ignored most of this. As far as it's concerned, if it's sweet it's a fruit, if not it's a vegetable, if it's small it's a berry, and if it's small, hard, and brown it's a nut lol

The only part of all this I knew was that tomatoes are fruits. The rest is new to me.
boomstick900 Probably the best comment I'll ever read.
Freek314 You need to read more comments bro, that was a crap comment. I'm usually far more drunk and amusing.

So basically everything I know is a lie :(
joshua salazar Welcome to the real world. Education has failed you in every way possible, now you must make your own way as a broken husk of what you could have been. Congratulations!
joshua salazar Not a lie, your teachers either over simplified things to give you a good, basic, all round education, or you didn't pay attention in school.
Maxx B Oversimplification is a lie of omission, so yes, they did lie.
joshua salazar Yes, just like cake.
Cake is a fruit! Portal 3 confirmed!
Imma need to wright this down
1-nuts aren't nuts
2-berries aren't berries
3-seeds are fruits
4-vegetables are fruits
5-I eat plant ovaries
and we like to drink fruit hair
from their ovaries
smoke ovaries
Pretty much...
You are wrong in something, vegetales don't exist, they are just o their types of plants
these are the botanical definitions whereas the more common definitions you hear (e.g. tomato=vegetable, strawberry=fruit, etc.) are culinary definitions.
botanical definitions have more to do with how things grow, whereas culinary definitions have more to do with how things taste and are generally used in food
being technically incorrect is worst.
I would actually class a tomato as a salad, which I think is a group that I made up. There are fruits, salads and vegetables in my culinary definitions. My botanical ones are what was said in the video (obviously).
@@lasarousi worse
Thank you! Exactly!
@@lasarousi What are you talking about?

You are smart. I am still lost even after the 5th time watching.

I just posted the same thing. Lol. Now I gotta delete it
Creativity is tossing cherry tomatoes, black olives, and zucchini in a nice vinaigrette and calling it a fruit salad.
Did you know that tomatoes are actually supposed to be sweet, but corporations have water them down due to having "the biggest fruit" possible?
Wow. I'm never going to think I know what type of food I'm eating ever again.. so bloody complicated :/

Paul Mason I made an infographic to help:
flippedphysics.net/Fruit_&_Vegetable_Types_Scishow.htm
:)
Flipped Physics Thank you. Still convoluted and stupidly complicated, but it makes more sense for this visual learner to understand now :)
James Lewandowski It really isn't that convoluted or stupidly complicated. It's just that before watching the video / looking at the infographic, everything was stupidly simplified for you.
Paul Mason If you can put it in your mouth and it doesn't poison you, go ahead and eat it!
You are technically correct, the best kind of correct.
JimPlaysGames I think it'd be more correct to say that our classification system is flawed, because it calls strawberries non-berries, even though we as humans have called them berries for much longer.
Jasper Kole he quoted futurama
Dan Mueller oh I understood that, I just didn't find the reference fitting
JimPlaysGames 😂
+Jasper Kole
Surely you meant to say:
"even though we *English speakers* have called them berries for much longer".
I mean, did you just assume that most people on the planet are English speakers? ^^
Most people on the planet don't do the "-berry" thing... that's typical of Germanic languages, which most people don't speak.
mouth full of fruit hair, I fuckin lost it lol.
Steven Davidson same. I watched that part 4 times lol
YES. That and the "fleshy receptacle" with accompanying eye roll.

Same!
3:25 I just ate an orange...
Now I'm wondering what in the world I just ate.
Well unless it was GREEN, it was not an Orange!!
My favorite berry is actually cucumbers, though watermelons come close.
Squash and pumpkins are also berries.
Micah Philson Butternut squash soup is delicious.
Which just illustrates why going by botanical definitions leads to insanity.

+Cynical Cthuluhu well about 4 months ago I just realized that the chicken eggs that we eat are basically failed chicken fetuses. I will never eat eggs nor fruits the same way again. :/

isaac born Damn it!!! ya beat me to it. Heres a thumbsup for you sir.
isaac born There's an anatomical and a culinary side to fruit. Tomatoes are vegetables, from a culinary perspective. And really, as far as food is concerned, it is only the culinary aspect that is important. Basically, tomatoes aren't sweet enough to act as fruit. they taste just fine as vegetables though.
isaac born Charisma is being able to sell a tomato fruit salad
RoScFan However, you can make tomato "jam" which is really good.
So the things on the surface of strawberries that we commonly call seeds aren't seeds? The seed is actually inside of them?
Yup
***** Fruitception.
Ciroluiro Like celery seeds, commonly used as a spice in cooking, those are actually fruit, too.
Ciroluiro yes, although the seed is most of them
Seedception
Soo.. what IS a berry then? A blueberry? I have way more questions after watching this than I did before.. Explaing fruits, vegetables, and nuts can probably be it's own show.
Basically, if it's one discrete "thing" with seeds inside that completely develops from a single ovary and no extra bits, it's a berry. So blueberries *are* berries. Strawberries aren't berries because what we call a "strawberry" isn't even the fruit; it's the little specks on the outside that you'd normally call "seeds". Those specks are the actual, entire *fruit* of a strawberry plant. Each one *contains* a seed. Bananas are berries because they contain seeds, though we've bred them to the point that those seeds are vestigial; the little black specks inside a banana are where the seeds *would have* developed had we not selectively bred cultivars that didn't develop their seeds. An apple isn't a berry because it isn't a single, discrete "thing" with no extra bits; If you cut an apple in half, you'll see the "area" in the core where the seeds are, and an "area" outside that between the core and the peel. The core area develops from the ovary, but the outer area doesn't and, since these two areas only have a vague boundary, it isn't a berry because it has "extra bits". But most melons (eg. watermelon, honeydew, cantaloupe, etc.). Additionally, "berries" can be divided into "true berries" (develop from a superior ovary) and "epigynous berries" (develop from an inferior ovary, sometimes called "false berries"). False berries include bananas, coffee, cranberries, blueberries, melons, and squash. All "true berries" are berries, but *some* false berries are other kinds of fruits. For example, bananas are false berries, but still actually botanical berries while coffee cherries, also false berries, are drupes rather than botanical berries (and the seed inside this drupe, the coffee "bean", isn't actually a bean).
from what i understand, pumpkins are actually berries.
A banana is a berry
Omar Goodman - Thank you for that explanation!
Cubialpha no pumpkins are included in 'pepo' branch of fleshy fruits.
now you know
and knowing is half the battle
Not being "that guy" is the other two thirds of the battle.
Understanding fractions is the remaining 1/elephanth of the battle.
is an elephanth -1/6?
Fucking hate you, my dad says that too much.
The other half is killing people. But nobody talks about that.
also peanuts should be called nutpeas
Holy crap! This changed the way I eat!!! WE WERE EATING OVARIES!!!??? THE GOVERNMENT DIDN'T TELL US THIS!!!!!
Evan Decker you didn't know..?... ._. Just what did you think flowers are?
Flowers are friends, not food.
Evan Decker Seeds evolve from the actual ovule inside the ovary. Seeds themselves are composed of a plant embryo surrounded by fatty, nutritious substances that act as a reserve of nutrients feeding the embryo enough to allow it to reach a stage of development where it can embed its roots into the soil and start living on its own. When we eat some kinds of seeds, like beans, we are eating that reserve, making its nutritional properties that were meant for the embryo work for us.
MaxArceus I... don't eat flowers... I mean I heard some can be eaten, but...
***** I've been eating chicken eggs without remorse... #Survivalofthefittest
I remember reading somewhere that there was a difference between the 'culinary' and 'botanical' definitions of fruits, and a tomato was a fruit in one sense and a vegetable in the other. what's you guys' takes on that?
Culinary = kitchen. In the kitchen a tomato is not put in a fruit salad
Yeah I heard something similar, that there is no scientific term for "vegetable " it's just a culinary term.
WrathOfMega Intelligence is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put a tomato in a fruit salad.
A Little Green Rosetta ^^^
Actheman1978 well if you really wanna get technical there is a scientific term for vegetable, but its way higher on the taxonomy scale... as in, the vegetable kingdom, so by that difinition a tomato would be a vegetable, mostly because it's not an animal.
"Nice glass of fruit hair"
*nearly shoots water out of my nose*
The reason why I'm 'that' person, the one who says "Well, technically... that's not true" as my introduction to most conversations, +SciShow, it BECAUSE I WATCH YOUR CHANNEL!!! I can't help but share my new found knowledge when you put common misconceptions to bed. It's all your fault that I sound like a know-it-all.
There some kind of weird intelligence to plants. They try all sorts of crazy shit just to reproduce. Are you telling me Iv'e spent my whole life getting tricked by plants?
nah m8.a plant can think,it planned to kill me once
That's not killing. It's falling, with style.
Bangbabangbabangbang / A JOKE DUMBASS
Yep. You have. They have manipulated us into getting rid of their competitors and into helping them reproduce and spread. The result of this manipulation is called agriculture (plant-based, aka farming).
An entire video explaining why one can compare apples and oranges XD
And just think all them vegen killing a plants offspring and they call us meats eattets names lol
Jack Caldwell Lol, what? You don't digest seeds, they come out in poop, if you were to shit in the backyard it is possible that a whole new plant would be born. We rarely eat leaves and almost never eat stems, we're aren't killing plants, we're helping them reproduce.
It takes more plants to feed livestock and livestock is the top source of deforestation. Nice try, dumbass.
Jack Caldwell Dude, vegans kill the "seeds" before they develop enough to feel. That's totally okay.
Feel free to drink pig-semen or eat undeveloped cattle-fetuses; I bet vegans would be totally fine with that.
***** Salad of any kind, rhubarb anything, any kind of nut, anything containing any kind of grain whatsoever, corn (the seeds rarely survive the trip), and the fact that we don't shit in the woods, we shit in toilets, where anything organic is very effectively broken down and filtered out, eliminating the viability of any seeds.
Get off your high horse, you kill just as much as we do, you just have a problem with us eating things that have faces, and that's an appeal to emotion. Go away.
***** So what you're telling me is you're shitting in your backyard every day?
I wonder if I can sue my teachers for never teaching me these...
what real use does this has that prevented to succeed in life? unless you are a botanist that failed certain curse, you can't.
+lasarousi I agree that they can't actually sue the teachers, which s/he was joking about anyway, but your defense of them is just... subpar. It makes no sense to forego holding teachers accountable for teaching children and teenagers inaccurate information simply because it doesn't impact their ability to succeed in life, especially since success is a bit of a nebulous term that has different meanings depending on the context you use it in and who's using it in a sentence.
Wut?
98% of what they teach us is a waste at least this is cool
@@Delysid13 Teachers aren't that educated on many subjects. Perhaps if we paid them more, and gave them more of an incentive to want to learn and research as much as possible to teach kids. Or to give Master's and Doctorate degree holders an incentive to bother teaching secondary school, instead of only bachelor's degree holders doing it.
0:55 -- Corn is a fruit? I thought corn plants were in the grass family, thereby making corn a grain. Are all grains fruit?
I'm so confused!
Technically, yes.

but seriously... WTF are figs?

Fun fact: Watermelons are berries
related to cucumbers!
Can you explain to me why they are berries? That video presented me with way too much information for me to process. I guess that means cantaloupe and the green melon whose name I can't recall even though I love it are also berries.

walNUT is not a nut and strawBERRY is not a berry
not confusing at all, not at all...
This just changed my whole world. Nothing will ever be the same.
That was just completely mind-boggling.
I've never had much luck remembering what food was fruit, veg or meat, and now this has just confused me even more 0_o
P.s. yes I was joking about getting confused with what is meat
Matt Douglas Really? Because I'm confused. What is meat?
Suvi-Tuuli Allan
Muscle tissue from animals. Everything is offal, sometimes referred to as organ meat. Heart is a bit of a gray area as it's both muscle and an organ.
Matt Douglas I'm often confused. Ever heard the expression "nutmeat"? It turns out the word "meat" was commonly used for the best part of a food. It wasn't always a word for animal flesh.
Matt Douglas Well lets you confuse you more then. apparently fish wasn't considered meat in ancient times, which is why your allowed to have it on good Friday, and why it is kosher with dairy products when chicken and beef aren't.
Benjamin Alexander yeah or the meat of some fruits.
I feel so knowledgeable now, and confused. Mostly confused.
Thank you for your knowledge
definitely gonna bookmark this for future use.
Might seem odd but you guys and SciShow Space have helped me with my depression and breakup. SciShow Space for example shows me just how small my life ,and love lost is in comparison to the universe. Thank you.

Biology is so weird. This is why I took Chemistry and Physics...
Kirk-Anthony Wignall If you're a botanist, or work in horticulture, agronomy, or grow plants as your occupation - yes, it's a good idea to have a working knowledge of this sort of stuff.
If none of those conditions apply to you - then feel free to retain (or not) for life bonus points.
Jan Weber lol.. what I'll retain is they're all good for you... for extended life points 😀
Kirk-Anthony Wignall Short answer: No.
Long answer: Maybe if you work with botany or some other kind of biology, depending on the specialisation.
I'm gonna call people Druplets from now on.
I disagree with one particular point of this; that tomatoes are not a vegetable. In biological terms, it is a fruit, in culinary terms, it is a vegetable. These are not mutually exclusive terms.
*****
Well yeah, in the broadest terms. But it is a little more specific then that when people use the word. In its culinary usage, it typically refers to more savory plants that are often cooked and/or served with meats and cheeses. That definitely applies to tomatoes.
Zanzibar Haberdasher It all depends on the context of the word used. Strictly biologically they are mutually exclusive (ME), as the fruit cannot be a stem, leaf, or root, (which is a vegetable) but instead is the ovary and surrounding tissue. Strictly culinary they are ME, as fruits are any parts of the plant for sweet tastes, while vegetables are any parts of a plant in a dish for savory (non-sweet) tastes. But cross-referencing the words between contexts doesn't work. Since a culinary fruit may not be a biological fruit and a culinary vegetable not a biological vegetable, the definitions of "fruit" and "vegetable" are much different in the biological and culinary contexts. Thus, they are ME within the given context, but not when one definition is jumbled with another definition in a different context.
However, mixing the contexts of two different words isn't a valid way of using them to make conclusions. Saying that a biological fruit and culinary vegetable are not ME is like saying that the geological "rock" and the musical genre of "metal" are not ME: it's logically fallacious to compare the definitions of words in different contexts as they may have a completely different meaning when used a different manner.
***** Keep reading the Wikipedia definition. "In everyday usage, a vegetable is any part of a plant that is consumed by humans as food *as part of a savoury course or meal*. The term "vegetable" is somewhat arbitrary" First, this is kind of a stupid thing to argue since "vegetable" is arbitrary and thus open to interpretation. So we can't make any definitive conclusions here. However, savory specifically means non-sweet so vegetables are not sweet, and fruits, by the culinary definition, are considered a part of the plant that is used as a part of a sweet course or meal. Those are mutually exclusive.
Darticus the Great
It is not fallacious at all. The argument concerns the statement "This is a fruit, NOT a vegetable." I am simply pointing out that it is both, depending on the context. I am not mixing the two contexts at all, but pointing out that there are multiple contexts, and it is incorrect to claim it is absolutely not one of those two things.
Zanzibar Haberdasher I didn't realize that it not being a vegetable was the argument, since the original comment said that it is a botanical fruit and a culinary vegetable. I agree that it's considered both a fruit and a vegetable, but that only makes fruits and vegetables non-ME across contexts, where the definitions have different nuances.
As someone currently studying for a botany exam, I appreciate this very much hank.
From Encyclopedia Britannica "in common, narrow usage, the term vegetable usually refers to the fresh edible portions of certain herbaceous plants-roots, stems, leaves, flowers, fruit, or seeds. These plant parts are either eaten fresh or prepared in a number of ways, usually as a savory, rather than sweet, dish." This is the definition of vegetable I use, making a tomato both a fruit and a vegetable.

This episode was awesome! I would absolutely LOVE to see an episode mini series dedicated to explaining the evolutionary benefits of each method of propagation!
Best episode yet! Out of all of them this is my new favourite.
I'm curioius, is the DNA of fruit from the parent or the child?
Landon Kryger the parent, when you buy fruit in the supermarket the fruits in the plastic bag are the same.
Landon Kryger That is a really good question i would like to also know the answer to.
Landon Kryger The children. Fruits are ovaries that have been fertilized, and regardless of self- or other-fertilization methods there is still variance in the germ cells that came together to form the progeny. On a side note, that was an excellent question!
Landon Kryger The DNA of the fruit is from the parent, the child is inside the fruit and hasn't begun growing yet.
Teth47 All cells in a fruit are derived from the fertilized ovum, so the paricarp layers are formed from the child and not the parent.
omg... too much information... to process... I need to make a mind map to organise all this new info... too much info... overloading... overloading... over-- beeeeeeeeeeeeep

There are two ways produce are classified. Botanically and culinarily. Each have their own criteria for what counts, but, from a purely scientific standpoint, you wanna go with botanic definitions, for sure. Love the work!
