Here is the top five food sources in various categories:
Domestic Animals Fruit Vegetables
---------------- ----- ----------
chicken Oranges Sugarcane
cattle Bananas wheat
sheep grapes corn
pigs apples rice
ducks watermelons potatoes
The tallest trees in North America (all are coastal trees)
douglas fir 329 (feet)
redwood 313
sequoia 275
noble fir 272
grand fir 257
A few years ago i saw lists like this and apples were at
the top. Wheat was at the top of the vegetable list. Things
have changed. At one time i read that persimmons was the most
common fruit in the world but it did not make the top ten in
this source. In the animal category ducks may surprise some
people because few ducks are eaten in most industrial counties.
