Well of course a bottle of ketchup isn't a vegetable.

Tomatoes are strictly speaking fruits.

I hope you don't mind me getting really sarcastic about this, because it's one of the things that irritates me.

Biologically speaking Tomatoes are still (parts of) vegetables - and so is every other fruit.

The fruit-vegetable divide, where something is either one of the other, is culinary, not biological, about how they are used in western cuisine and how they taste to human beings. This means that a Tomato is a vegetable and not a fruit (irrespective of it's biological function), because of its flavour and use in cooking.

So, no matter the context, it is correct to describe a tomato as a vegetable.
