Herb and spices mixtures discussions [edit]


Fennel... [edit]

...is listed in thee template as a spice, yet the article says it's a herb. They can't both be right... Grutness...wha? 07:50, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

"Fennel" can refer to several parts of the plant. Fennel seed is a spice; other parts of the plant are an herb or a vegetable. --Una Smith (talk) 17:27, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
The general rule that we use (WP:Herbs) is that spices are anything that is not the leaf or flower of the plant, so twigs, seeds and bark are all spices. --Jeremy (blah blahI did it!) 18:14, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
