      Mushrooms are vegetables

      Vegetables are part of a plant

      Thus mushrooms are plant

      Also I typed plant in the emoji search and got a mushroom 🍄

              But it does say it is a vegetable, and a vegetable is part of a plant.

              It’s like strawberries, they’re technically nuts but we call them fruit.

                That’s syllogism.

                Just because it is considered a vegetable in culinary terms, doesn’t make it a plant in biological classification.

                  Right, and just because it’s a fungi in biological classification doesn’t make it one in culinary terms.

                  Now I don’t know about your side of the world, here where I am 99% of people are not scientists. We use categories that we interact with daily, which is why mushroom is a plant rather than a niche definition.

                    In everyday conversation, mushroom is considered to be a vegetable. Even I would call that a vegetable. But I have never heard anyone (in everyday conversation) calling mushroom a plant.

                    By the way, strawberries are not technically nuts. They are actually considered an aggregate accessory fruit.
