I have a simple flowchart to determine what is or isn't a veggie:
> Can I eat it? -> Yes -> Does it come from an animal? -> No = Vegetable
Rice, my favorite vegetable.
... Is it not?
Being a grain (or even specifically a "Cereal grain") doesn't exclude it, see corn.
Sand has a lot of minerals in it. Probably the healthiest veggie of them all!
That’s why they call you the bread man.
Gushers are vegetables, got it.
I mostly agree, but there's a few holes in that flowchart:
My favorite vegetables are salt and ice.
Rocks are vegetables nodnod
Behold a vegetable
Ahh Diogenes the greatest philosopher
I also add: Does it taste good?
I do this because of cranberries. I do not eat anything that you can make candles or soap from......
