In spanish tomatoes are called “hortalizas”, the others are “verduras” apart of “frutas”, fruits, in english only traduced with vegetables and fruits. Maybe because Spain has a better food culture. Mushrooms are something in between plants and animals in a separate genre. The US anyway differences only protein, sugar and decoration, tomatoes in Bottles from Heinz.
Honestly Bizarre

Vegetable is a culinary category, with no botanical/biological definition. I don’t see a reason why mushrooms don’t belong in it.

Some mushrooms are nice. Some are cold hearted killers.

First of all, cucumbers get the same flak, and those are actually green.
