Leaves are fruits? Eh?
If he's pretending to be this dumb, he's hilarious.

Oranges are green until they are ripe. What tropical place did you see a ripe green orange?
Vietnam. Brazil. Ecuador. A lot of equatorial places.
The orange color is caused by something happening to the chlorophyll when the temperatures cool. But in the tropics, temps can be fairly steadily warm and don't trigger that reaction.

Huh, TIL. I worked at an orange grove in the subtropics, and knew about the cold snap for other aspects of citrus, I never knew about the peel.

I'm pretty sure orange and cherry are named after the fruit, but Blackberry is true.

Having grown up in Brazil, I can confidently say that most of our oranges are indeed orange. Green is usually the colour of non-ripe ones and you can expect extreme acidity from them.

Apparently oranges and other citrus fruit (and others, like bananas) are "degreened" with ethylene.
Here's a video with bananas. https://youtu.be/jzjBAAv9nxc

Redcurrant
Actually, the color is named after the fruit. It wasn't until the late Middle Ages that we discovered anything other than the redcurrant that was red in color. Poppies, for example, were only discovered in ~1917, and we only found out about blood in the 1970s.

Red apple, green apple red strawberries, yellow strawberries, red tomatoes, green tomatoes, yellow tomatoes, purple tomatoes (although purple isn't a real color by itself). Oh and red berries.
You might argue it's not the fruit's name, but when you say "honny, can you get me some apples from the store while you're going there please?" and she comes back with green apples, while you wanted red apples, you'd be like "fuck. I should have named it better, I only asked for half the name of what I wanted, now I need to hit my wife to blame her and hide my mistake". So my point here is, not naming the color of the fruit in its name is the cause for domestic violence.
