Vegetables are a social construct too.

Afaik, botanically, there is no such thing as a "vegetable". Only fruits. What we perceive as "vegetable" differs between cultures worldwide.

The botanical definition is just "edible parts of a plant". The culinary definition however does differs per culture.
