About this word search

A few words on this list change depending on where you are. Canadians say Zucchini and Eggplant, while in Britain the same vegetables are courgette and aubergine. Sprouts here usually means Brussels sprouts, the small green vegetable that many children push to the edge of the plate.

Zucchini, with its Z and double c, is a good anchor to find first. Cauliflower is the longest word. Since no word runs backwards, each one reads the normal way, but diagonals are part of the game, so check them too when a letter seems to lead nowhere.

After the puzzle, make a rainbow on paper: a red row for Tomato and Radish, an orange row for Carrot and Pumpkin, a green row for Lettuce and Broccoli. Then see which colour has the most vegetables.
