Alan Rock's Trivia!

Questions:

1) How many varieties of tomatoes are there (hint:L the answer may be on your ketchup bottle!)?

2) In 1893, this fruit was designated as a vegetable in a court decision pertaining to tariff laws. What was it?

3) Seven U.S. states were named after royalty. Which ones are they?

4) Where were streets first paved?

Answers:

1) 57 (that was too easy!)

2) The TOMATO!

3) Georgia, Louisiana, Maryland, North and South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia

4) Rome laid out the world's first paved streets 170 BC. The new streets were popular, as they functioned in all sorts of weather and were easier to keep clean, but they did tend to amplify the noise level.
