i'm sorry i asked

Wikipedia what an eggplant was. it all started at two days ago at work; i heard a rumor that eggplant was, in fact, a fruit and not a vegetable. my colleagues were right, but my distress did not come until i delved a bit deeper, and checked out the definition of fruit. apparently a fruit is a "ripened ovary," and so a delicious vegetarian delicacy could now rightly be classified in the same culinary category as other exotic, reproductive organ-based treats such as ram testicles.
