If we're talking about fruit in the traditional sense rather than the botanical sense, shouldn't you include "rhubarb" at 188 recipes?

Rhubarb is used in a lot of recipes that also call for fruit, but I can't say that I've ever heard it actually regarded as a fruit, much less debated to be one the way tomatoes/avocados/squash/etc., are. It's just that one vegetable-y thing that GOES with fruit.

Rhubarb is like grass to me. You have to cook it and add sugar to it to make it palatable. Proper fruits are already sweet and delicious, so they don't need processing first.

Physalis is a genus of plants.. In the US and Mexico its called a tomatillo, if you exclude botanical definition of fruits, then it would be akin to a tomato..

Physalis is something totally different, passionfruit comes from the plant passiflora and is a climbing vine that can grow large and high, and physalis, get 40 cm max and has little orange lampoons..

I have them in my garden. and really the two plants could hardly be more distinct. A passionflower does have a lot of similarities with clematis

@pacogee physalis is indeed a part of the nightshade family just like the tomato (and potato and tobacco &others)

You see cranberries in a lot of recipes in the US. Over here in Saudi Arabia pomegranates are used all the time especially in desserts but it's also just a very popular flavor in general. I don't think I've ever seen a recipe calling for passion fruit before- I see them used mostly in making smoothies or odd-flavored beverages. Maybe chewing gum.

In the US pomegranates became popular a few years ago for their juice, which is supposed to be another "new" superfood. I see pom juice everywhere in the stores now, but I only see the fruits during the Christmas season. (I live in a rural area. That probably makes a difference.)

Fruits are just ripened ovaries, inside the ovary are the ovules which become seeds. In other words, anything with seeds is a fruit. Meaning avocados, BERRIES, tomatoes, etc. are fruits.

the quiz cant be incorrect. If i make a quiz and call it "boys names with the exclusion of the letter m" The quiz is not wrong for not showing answers that start with an m.

in this cases I guess some are excluded to keep the fighting in the comment section to a minimum ( and the amount of suggestions "fix this!" "add this" etc the quizmaster gets)

Passion fruit is becoming increasingly common as an ingredient in higher end bakeries and fancy baking cookbooks. It is also, unfortunately, still relatively hard to find in grocery stores, even in a foodie metropolis like San Francisco. I suspect it will make a run for this list in a few years time.
