Just a few suggestions in no particular order:

Tomato, melons (watermelon, Persian etc), allspice, various citrus fruit
(sweet oranges, grapefruit, lemons, limes, etc.), coconut, peanuts, sweet
potatoes and/or yams (yes I know that they are two different tubers but many
don't), various nuts (ie. walnuts, filberts etc.) various berries,
(blueberry, raspberry etc.), types of booze (rum, flavored cordials etc.)
chocolate in its various avatars, various variations on cabbage (b***
sprouts, c***flower etc.), okra, orange carrots,  and beef jerky!!!
