Hello Dallas,

[...]

 DH> or even an unimaginable meat and fruit pie!).

:-)
That's not unheard of, come to think of it. At least there are chicken & pineapple salad recipes and some other "weird" but edible combos.

 AK>> meat, tomatoes, fruit, and green stuff.

I was trying to prove the point to AK that "fruit" can be referred to as an uncountable noun. So, is this usage "grammatical"? I believe the author used "fruit" (not fruits) to imply "the assortment of fruits", like in a smorgasbord.

Some other examples, like this one:

========
eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables
