How to play Vegetables Word Search

Every word in the list is hidden in the letter grid in a straight line.
Drag across a word with your finger or mouse to select it. The selection snaps to the nearest straight line: across, down or diagonal.
Prefer tapping? Tap the first letter, then tap the last letter to select everything in between.
Found words stay highlighted on the grid and are crossed off the list. Find them all to finish the puzzle.
Easy (10×10) hides words left-to-right and top-to-bottom only. Medium (12×12) adds diagonals. Hard (14×14) uses all eight directions, including backwards. Expert (18×18) and Extreme (22×22) pack in more words on a bigger grid for a real challenge.
