A variety of apple, a cross between New Brunswicker and Fameuse, made by the New Brunswick pomologist Francis Peabody Sharp in about 1866. Its fruit is red, and its season is extremely early. It is still popular in Aroostook County (Maine) where Sharp's influence (and trees) were of great importance during the 19th century.
A variety of Japanese wineberry with small, reddish-amber fruits and a flavour reminiscent of pineapple.
A cylindrical loaf baked in a special ridged tin so that it is marked, like a caterpillar with short segments, all down its length for ease of slicing.
A name for Pink Lady which don't quite come up to scratch. An Australian all-purpose apple with pinkish-red skin and slightly tart, crisp hard flesh which was raised by the Western Australia Department of Agriculture as a cross between Golden Delicious and Lady Williams in 1979. The best fruit is labelled as Pink Lady and the less good as Cripps Pink.
Crisps (US: potato chips) are thin slices of potato deep fried and then sealed into a bag with any of a number of flavourings. In my childhood Smith's Crisps contained a small helping of salt twisted into a bit of royal blue waxed paper. This was all there was on offer.
Iceberg lettuce. One of the two types of lettuce, the other being butterhead. They are rather round in shape with tightly packed, pale leaves. They are crisp, but the flavour is usually rather mild and they add more to a dish in terms of in texture than they do in taste. This type includes iceberg lettuces, Great Lakes, Imperial, Vanguard and Western.
