Who Names Fruit !?!

I really am confused. Who decided the names of fruits? Follow this logic as I try to sort out a shopping list for Asda.

An Orange is a fruit. So when you make it into a drink, it’s Orange Squash. An apple is a fruit. So when you make that into a drink, you get Apple Juice.

Tomatos are, well, debatable (stand by for a correction from Vikki!), but they make Tomato Juice.

So who decided to name Butternut Squash? No wonder I can never find it in the drinks section, because it’s a fruit! Was this a deliberate ploy so Robinson’s would never make Butternut Squash Squash?

    Sorry to rain on your parade mate, but oranges yeild Orange Juice. Orange Squash is an entirely different kettle of fruit.
