Answer 3

Quite amusing, and this quiz has been around for some time.
The answer for question 9 however, is quite wrong.
Chinese gooseberries ARE from China. It was a clever marketting ploy by New Zealand growers to re-name them Kiwi fruit in the 1970's; but they originally came from asia. The quizwriter fell for the NZ ploy.
