List of culinary fruits

This list contains the names of fruits that are considered edible either raw or cooked in various cuisines. The word fruit is used in several different ways. The definition of fruit for this list is a culinary fruit, defined as "Any edible and palatable part of a plant that resembles fruit, even if it does not develop from a floral ovary; also used in a technically imprecise sense for some sweet or semi-sweet vegetables, some of which may resemble a true fruit or are used in cookery as if they were a fruit, for example rhubarb."^[a]^[1]

Many edible plant parts that are considered fruits in the botanical sense are culinarily classified as vegetables (for example: the tomato, zucchini, and so on), and thus do not appear on this list. Similarly, some botanical fruits are classified as nuts (e.g. brazil nut) and do not appear here either. This list is otherwise organized

botanically.

Pomes

Pomes include any crunchy accessory fruit that surrounds the fruit's inedible "core" (composed of the plant's endocarp) and typically has its seeds arranged in a star-like pattern.
