Sometimes I find myself gazing at the perfectly constructed rows of red, yellow, orange, and green peppers at the grocery store and thinking to myself, “man that’s beautiful.” I thought I was alone in doing that, but now I know I am not.

Massachusetts is obsessed with produce, according to a new study.

How obsessed? That’s what Total Shape, a health and fitness website, set out to find out. They used Google search data to examine the search volumes of fruits and vegetables per 100,000 residents in each U.S. state – the more fruity and veggie searches per 100,000 residents, the higher the state ranks on the countdown.

If this is too food-healthy for you then after you’re done seeing how obsessed Massachusetts is with cantaloupe melons and string beans, come back here and see all the best places to get roast beef sandwiches all around Mass. Mmmm… meat.

But to be real I love fruits and veggies even more so let’s see where we ended up in the Top 10 Most Produce-Obsessed States. Oh and I’ll give you the top 3 most popular fruits & veggies in Massachusetts when we get to MA on the countdown. Grab a grape to munch on and let’s goooo!
