Water is debatable, everything else why not. If a recipe is generic enough to call for “vegetables”, you wouldn’t be wrong to include any of those things.
I absolutely call them vegetables. It’s a kitchen term and it absolutely makes sense to categorise them alongside tomatoes, beans, carrots, squash and cabbage. People get too hung up on things only belonging to exactly one category.
I’m sorry, who exactly is out here calling mushrooms vegetables??
If it goes in soup, it’s a vegetable. If it goes in Sangria, it’s a fruit.
Next question please.
Is water a fruit or a vegetable
If it is from a plant and it goes into fruit salad, it’s fruit
Chicken and beef go in soup.
So water, salt, cheese, meat, and noodles are all vegetables?
