"You need to eat more vegetables, Dean."
"Hey, I eat vegetables! I'm eating one right now!"
"...Dean, that's pie."
"Yeah!"
"Pie is not a vegetable."
"Is too! See! Pumpkin pie! Pumpkin is totally a vegetable."
"It's a fruit."
"Pumpkins are not fruit."
"When you eat the whole plant it's a vegetable. When you eat the plant's seed pods it's a fruit."
"...Is this like that tomato thing when you were eight?"
"Yeah."
"But you admitted a tomato was a vegetable then."
"You were sitting on my chest, Dean."
"Doesn't matter. A tomato's a vegetable, and so is a pumpkin."
"They're fruits."
"Vegetables."
"Okay, fine. Vegetable matter. But that does not make pie a vegetable."
"This pie is made from a vegetable. Therefore, it is a vegetable."
"Ketchup is made from tomatoes and it's not a vegetable. Or a fruit."
"Totally is."
"It's a condiment!"
"Still a vegetable. Ketchup is an even better vegetable than plain tomatoes."
"What? Why?"
"It's concentrated. I bet about a hundred tomatoes go into making a bottle of ketchup."
"...okay, you're probably right about the tomatoes, but that still doesn't make ketchup, or that pie, a vegetable!"
"What part of 'it's made of vegetables' don't you get, Sammy?"
"It's not though! It's got sugar and crust and whipped cream!"
"And vegetables. The rest is a garnish."
"Crust is a garnish?
"Structural element. Does not in anyway count against pie being a vegetable."
"What about whipped cream? You can hardly see the pie under all the whipped cream, Dean, how is that a garnish?"
"That? Is a protective insulating covering.
"Protective covering."
"Keeps the vegetable at the right temperature and protected from the elements."
"Really."
"Plus, it's dairy. Calcium. Good for the bones and crap."
"...You know what, Dean, never mind. Pie is a vegetable. Go nuts."
