Well... thanks very much... or does my handle happen to mean something else in Spanish and this has nothing to do with me??
Hmmm... I can't work out what it's all about, but it certainly sounds nice.
Now looking for the smiley that best describes this complicated emotion - some sort of cautious but mystified pleasure. Can't find one that's quite right, so I'll just use a vegetable. Or is it a fruit?

Looks like an apple, which is a fruit.

From a botanical standpoint, it's a fruit. From a culinary standpoint, it's a vegetable.

I've seen several interesting discussions on that subject in Internet, and I have also came across this wiki-entry. What is really interesting is the fact that as far as interpretation of US tarrifs is concerned, tomato is also a vegetable
Personally I consider tomato a vegetable, although it is a fruit of a tomato plant

Arrow Fruit or veg!



Well whatever in God's creation it is, you can include it in your pizza as a topping or dressing for that matter in your salad or soup etc. Otherwise try a Spanish omlette. It could be the piece de resistance of the meal.

So I was wrong. You read it.

Meanwhile it's generated a most absorbing discussion about fruit and vegetables. Well, some go for the fruit and some for the veg. I'm most definitely a fruit.
