overfloat: bananas and pineapples are vegetables.

I'm so tired of the "tomatoes are actually a fruit" thing. Yes, they are a fruit, but so are lots of other "vegetables". Cucumbers are not only a fruit, they're closely related to watermelon. Anything with seeds inside is a fruit. Peppers! Eggplant! Pumpkin! Squash! Corn! Fruits, one and all!

Perhaps a better distinction would be "sweet vegetables" vs "savory vegetables".

All that being said, I'm not a big fan of cooked / grilled banana. I had some in Mexico and it got a bit too dry and leathery.

I really like grilled pineapple though.
