Which is why technically the pizza base is a fruit.
I tend to be one of the pedantic ones explaining what is/isn't a fruit etc.... but I think when the subject is not about the science it's probably best to stick to the common definitions (even if they are not so precisely defined). That being fruits are sweet/sour and vegetables are not (at least in uncooked form they are normally a bitter flavour).
So I retract my mention of peppers & olives, but raisins/sultanas are definitely fruit.
