I have been thinking and thinking about this. If a "vegetable" has seeds, does that make it a fruit? I think an avocado might be a fruit, too.
Yes, you're right, fruits in which all of or most of the fruit wall is fleshy at maturity are classified as simple fleshy fruits. They are further classified as berries, drupes, false berries, and pomes. The entire ovary wall of the berry ripens into a fleshy, usually edible pericarp i.e. fruits of the tomato, grape, date, aubergine (eggplant), AVOCADO, and red pepper.
