Okay, but the ruling is totally sensible inasmuch as it applies to “purposes of tariffs, imports and customs”. Tomatoes by and large aren’t being imported for their botanical value; they’re being used for food. This ruling exists so corporations can’t “um ackshually” their way out of paying their fair share.
But that’s too sensinle; in reality, this unanimous ruling that I never bothered to spend five seconds researching independently (I am very intellectually superior) was just “le Americans uneducated ecksdee”.

‘Fruit de la mere’ is obviously just some attempted tax dodge.

Assuming you were aiming for the French phrase for ‘seafood’, I think you meant ‘fruit de mer.’
‘Fruit de la mere’ would translate to, ‘fruit of the mother.’
