List of All Fruits

A Comprehensive List of All Fruits (Botany and Culinary)

 

In culinary terms, fruits are plant foods that can be used as fruit ingredients for the preparation of fruit cuisines.  In botany however, fruits are defined as being parts of flowering plants and each one is derived from specific tissues of a flower.  Since botany is the field of science that studies plant biology, its definition of fruit covers a broad spectrum of plants.  Below is a list of all fruits according to the botanical and culinary definitions of fruit.  The following list contains most of the known fruits which are considered to be edible.   Caution:  Some fruits (especially uncommon fruits) must be prepared using specific methods before they’re considered suitable for consumption.
