For some reason, people got hung up on tomatoes, but the “fruit or vegetable” question could also work for any vegetable with seeds.

No, It's a vegetable. It's not fruit. 

Its a fruit, and cucumber is too.

As far as the definition of 'fruit' v 'vegetable' goes .. it is a fruit.

It is ''the fleshy part of a plant that contains the seeds that can produce another plant''.

A vegetable is ''any other part of the plant'' .. the leaves (spinach) .. the roots (carrots) .. the stem (asparagus) .. or the seeds themselves (peas).

It is a fruit eaten like a vegetable.
