Default Is pineapple a fruit?

Still waiting for you to tell your joke, Frenchie!

Why do you think a fruit needs to have seeds to be a fruit? Botanically, a
fruit is the structure that develops after the flowers fade, regardless of
whether they contain seeds or not.

To day, I ate an orange without seed. Then it was not a fruit? It tasted
more or less the same as the one I ate 2
weeks ago. This one was a fruit since it had seeds in it. :-)

I feel silly. I feel as joking to night.
