      Let's give @neiltyson a taste of his own medicine: Actually, the banana is an edible fruit produced by herbaceous flowering plants in the genus Musa. It has no emotions. What's sad is Chiquita's deadly history of drugs and corruption. Somewhat less a-peel-ing, right?https://twitter.com/neiltyson/status/977206023734878208 …

          You're a berry. But seriously, I couldn't resist! Enjoyed our chat a few years. ago, and hope that we can do it again.

          Is a pop-tart a sandwich? Or better yet, a hot dog?

          I believe there is a botanical difference, but I'll let Neil handle that.

          I mean isn't a berry just a type of fruit. Either way it's petty and largely unimportant
