Vegetarian Fruit

I overheard this while buying fruits from a fruit vendor after dinner during the Nine Emperor Gods Festival...
Auntie : Eh.... is this Fruit vegetarian ?
Fruit Vendor : yay... this fruit is vegetarian... veli safe to eat..
Me : O_o
Its strange you know.... that a fruit can be seperated into vegetarian and non-vegetarian fruit.
Aiya... how come a fruit is a vegetarian one ? .. lol somemore prior to asking one of my colleagues who ate only vegetarian during this period.... he told me tat ginger is not considered a vegetable as becoz its an ingredient to enhance the flavour of a dish and not a main vegetable dish itself.....
I wonder if they will try to make vegetarian fruit from flour... hmmm..... strange.. :p
