sewing the seeds of the citrus vegetable

The question was posed "hey Matt, is a lime a fruit or a vegetable?"  Brian immediately volunteered that "limes are vegetables."  I of course backed this information, stating that it was indeed a citrus vegetable.  Han confirmed as well.  Our faithful idiot then asked about green peppers.  I explained that technically anything that is the result of pollination is the fruit of the plant, but generally, green peppers are considered vegetables, though they are very sweet.  I can not wait to see what happens when he tells his storeroom/product identification chef that limes are vegetables.  To be fair, he was at his laptop and should know enough to look it up.  google "lime" and the second word that comes up is "fruit."  The saying is "fool me once, shame on you.  fool me twice, shame on me."  By now, everything that we lend our special brand of misguidance to, is definitely his fault.
