Is sugar a fruit or a vegetable?! I can't decide and feel stupid by calling it a fruit then being wrong!

Niether it's a carbohydrate

Broken down by enzymes

Sugar cane is a grass, sugar beet is related to the beetroot and mangel-wurzel so would probably be classed as a vegetable. The refined sugar you put into your tea is neither fruit nor vegetable.

Sugar Cane is not a fruit or vegetable but a grass.

Sugar beet is technically a root vegetable. Close relative to chard or beetroot.

Sugar cane is a plant, plants can be fruit or vegetable.

Sugar is a carb, not a fruit or a vegetable.

Neither. Sugar comes from a plant (sugarcane or sugar beet) but it's actually classified as just a carbohydrate, not a fruit or a veggie

Neither.

Fruit and vegetables contain sugar.

I would class the sugar one puts in our tea as possibly being fruit ? Certainly not vegetable as they are not Sweett

If you are talking about sugar beets then sugar is a root vegetable.
