Words Hidden in Fruit

Make a word of the required number of letters using the letters contained in the name of each fruit. You can use each letter only as many times as it actually occurs in the fruit’s name.

Constructive criticism is welcome. Subscribe to get a notification when I release a new quiz.
Answers that consist of a string of consecutive letters in the fruit’s name have been disallowed, e.g., “range” as a five-letter word found in “orange.” Sorry. (Sort of.)

This is a great quiz but the instructions need to be a little clearer. Something like "Create a word of the given length using along the letters in the name of the fruit. Each letter in the name can be used only once."
