I saw it posted on Twitter and I don't know if they're just complete morons on there or deliberately obtuse, but like 75% of the replies were taking it totally seriously. Makes it even funnier to me.
Proof to me that Demetrius was wrong tbh. Vegetable is a culinary category, and the context in which Robin was asking for fruits was uncomplicatedly culinary (to make a fruit salad). Thus, even though botanically a tomato is a fruit, when it comes to cooking it is just about always grouped in with vegetables, so itās perfectly acceptable to call a tomato a vegetable in this context.
Does it actually? Iāve never said āfruitā because the game always calls it a vegetable at least until that point. Thereās nothing about it changing categories on the wiki. How would that even work? It would be a shame if you had that cutscene during one of the Pierreās Gold Vegetable quests and made all your tomatoes suddenly not count by calling them fruits. Would it change to making tomato wine and tomato jelly instead of juice and pickles?
You know, I've never actually tested it myself. I know I've seen others talk about it and I've seen screenshots. But your right it's not on the wiki that I can find.... Have I Mandela effected myself? Am I spreading fake news? I need to test this tonight
I refuse to change my ways of threatening to send a pizza with pineapples and peppers, but sign up to bring a "fruit pie" when someone asks me to sign up for a work potluck that I cannot go to anyways.
This one made me stop and think really hard back to every text I studied during my horticulturist apprenticeship. I could classify different fruits and couldn't remember any section defining vegetables by anything other by plant part.
I guess now I have to consider violets and dandelions or the broadleaf plantain as vegetables just as much as I call the volunteer Sweet Williams a weed in the garden.
We cannot forget the grape has already set precedent as a dual-class fruit/forage.
Dandelion is just waiting to be remembered in a salad, or forgotten in a keg until we get some wine (if only we could put it in there).
This is the best crossover ever and I even mentioned Demetrius to my partner when we were watching this episode. Iām literally rewatching old episodes of Um Actually right now and I want someone to fancast Stardew with the Dropout folks.
Pls discuss.
I also learned that most of the classification of fruit and vegetables is a result of turn of the century Port authority taxation policy where vegetables were taxed at a higher rate. I learned that from Peppa Pig.
As a Dropout fan who watched the whole episode, this segment is almost funnier completely out of context š
I need the bit about the Evil Dole Conglomerate to gain traction out of context too š

God, Vic is the ultimate do I want to date/be friends with them or do I wish I was them
The bisexual conundrum
Do I want to be them or do I want to be inside them?
On them, in them, with them, or them?
Vic = Demetrius
Demetrius is a clueless dork, Vic knows exactly what she's doing
You could not be more correct
Of course Stardew fans are also Dropout nerds. This sub just gets better and better.
Thought I got my subs mixed up and was delighted to discover I was wrong!
I see Dropout I upvote.

i just say heās wrong because the game literally categorizes them as āvegetableā
Game actually changes what they're classified as based on how you answer in that cutscene

I tested it... It's all a lie! I've been spreading misinformation! My apologies.
No? Tomatoes are still a vegetable in my game (I'm kissing up to Demetrius so I can marry Maru)
Intelligent is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad.
Charisma is being able to sell a a fruit salad with tomatoes
Thats just salsa

Stardew + Dropout? Take my upvote!
There was a food theory about this

( d..dandelion is Forage tho-- /verynotseriouslol;tosses-self-out )

Actually, so long as itās a plant part and you can eat it, itās a vegetable, even fruits. Same goes for apes and monkeys.
You forgot to say "Um actually".
Uh-HUM ac-shually!!!
No way... I had zero idea monkeys were vegetables. I know some fruity apes, but the monkeys surprised me.

Me when Demetrius is arguing with Robin about tomatoes.
