cackleberry Jan 2017 6:17pm, 14 Jan 2017 1,258 posts	0 cackleberry I'm going for the idea that if it feels like cheating, it probably is! After all, it's not a race to be the first to get to 100! (Is it?!) I'm counting raisins and grapes separately. I think I'd count the different type of cabbage separately too, but then I don't like green/white cabbage so would need to record the fact I've eaten enough of it to count!! I'll be counting cooking apples as different to dessert apples, but not individual varieties of apple. I'm also counting baked beans 'cos it says I can on the tin! So there. 18. Baked Beans

cackleberry Jan 2017 6:22pm, 14 Jan 2017 1,259 posts	0 cackleberry Doesn't the colour of a pepper refer to it's ripeness and therefore doesn't count? Different types of peppers would count though, ordinary bell peppers, those long sweet peppers that are expensive but very yummy, various chilli peppers... Different varieties and different ways to prepare and consume.

Chestnut Winded, I did wonder about dried fruit so I'll take raisin out and specify a grape. Someone else had raisins but there's no need for me to be a sheep. Are we including potatoes or not?
