Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit.
Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
Philosophy is wondering if that means ketchup is a smoothie.

@sflorg overheard a mom talking to a kid recently: "is banana a fruit?"
Next thing I heard clearly was "oh it's tomato". Can only assume she was trying to tell her kids that bananas were vegetables.

it's actually an herb distantly related to ginger, but it does have seeds. . . its a fruit in need of therapy. 😁
