Why have Asda got tinned tomatos in the vegetable aisle?

Would you eat them with cream as a dessert?


How would that decision affect what they actually are? Should we have
an aisle labelled "stuff that goes with this other stuff?"

I want a tomato, I know it's a fruit, so I should go to the fruit aisle!

As with most supermarkets the section is "Fruit and Veg" I don't see the
problem, and not everyone knows (or cares) that a tomato is a fruit.


If they don't know what a fruit is, do they know what a car is? I guess the yanks don't know what a truck is, they think a 4x4 is a truck.

Come to that a lot don't even care what it tastes like.


If it's fruit and veg, there isn't a problem. But my Asda has a fruit aisle and a veg aisle.
