friday: Bob and Larry not veggies!

Scandal has rocked Veggie Tales, the popular video series which brought us
such classics as “Dave and the Giant Pickle,” “Larry-Boy and the Rumor Weed,” and “Silly Songs with Larry.”

Stars Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber are not veggies, but fruit! Tomatoes are technically berries which develop
from the ovary of the flower after being pollinated by the stamen. Cucumbers also reproduce sexually, so are considered fruit.

In fact there are few actual vegetables in Veggie Tales! The French Peas are fruit! Jimmy and Jerry the Gourds as
well as Madame Blueberry are berries!
