Because we all collectively decided fruit were their own thing? They’re the juicy snack plants give away to trick animals into spreading their seeds.

I’m not sure why the ancient chefs decided to be silly. They should have just called it all “plants” and be done with it.

So a roasted chicken is a vegetable?

Any edible non-fruit part of a plant. I’ll also make exceptions for nonstandard fruits like pods and kernels.

So water, salt, cheese, meat, and noodles are all vegetables?

I remember that too, but more likely it was just repeated in news articles and forums and we remember it being an official tagline.

ME was basically a less stable 98. I used it for years until the hard drive failed, and it wasn’t the worst thing ever. It was definitely a step down from 98 though, and XP blew it out of the water.

I used it and didn’t mind it at the time. I personally never ran into any issues with it, and then upgraded to 7 when I got a chance.

It was certainly more stable than ME, which I also had the pleasure of running.

People putting things into salads need to chill out.

Tomatoes, cucumbers, mushrooms, salt, pepper, bacon, eggs, dressing, croutons, cheese, olives, olive oil, vinegar, peppers, salsa, chicken, steak, tortilla chips, limes, chow mien noodles, etc. are all things one might put in a salad that aren’t vegetables. You don’t have to label everything vegetables just because there’s some lettuce in there.

Chromium. Ungoogled Chromium if you really hate Google. Or Firefox with a user agent switcher.

You don’t believe that insects are animals? Did you think they were plants?

What? Who’s calling pumpkins, squashes, and cucumbers vegetables?

And no one calls mushrooms vegetables: mushrooms are mushrooms.

French Interior Minister Laurent Nunez in an interview on local radio said the value of the items would be "inestimable."

I’m sure a number will pop up once the insurance claim is filed.
