Fruit

A sweet and fleshy product of a tree or other plant that contains seed and can be eaten as food. Common examples include apples, oranges, and bananas. Most fruits are rich in vitamins, minerals and fiber.

Vegetable

Any edible part of a plant that is used in savory dishes. This includes roots, stems, leaves, flowers, and sometimes fruits that are used as vegetables.

Unlike fruits, vegetables are typically lower in sugar content and higher in fiber. Common examples include carrots, broccoli, spinach, potatoes, and tomatoes (which are technically fruits).

Grain

The edible seeds or fruit of grass-like plants belonging to the family Poaceae. These include wheat, rice, corn, oats, and barley. See Types of Grains.

Legume
