Place the food item in the food group

I started the vegetable/fruit inquiry by looking up cucumber in the dictionary. Turns out this long beloved vegetable is actually a fruit. So I brought this conversation up with someone and have been deliberating on what group the PEA fits into. Thoughts?

    Peas are vegetables. Fruits, like cucumbers, have seeds.

    Pea's and Tomato's are both fruits because they grow on a vine, and produce seeds. (a pea is a seed in a pea pod)
