I've been going back and forth about whether to count different varieties for the 100 fruits and vegetables challenge. On the one hand, I won't get to 100 without them, but on the other, it seems like cheating in some cases. I've decided I'll count them when I can actually tell the difference between them. For instance, since there are navel oranges at the grocery store year-round, the supply must change from one variety grown in one region to another over time, but the only differences I can really see are in rind thickness, so they don't count. On the other hand, say, apples have a lot of different distinct types which I can readily tell apart, so those will count.

Counting a few more...

I should have raisins at #7. I have a big box of them on my work table and snack on them every regular workday. I'm not counting differently processed things as different items, so the golden raisins I've been having count for green grapes.

#14 is snow peas, in a chicken dish in our delivery order from a local Chinese restaurant last night.

#15 is yellow corn (or maize or sweetcorn depending on where you are) in the fish hash I made tonight.

Master list here.
