The comment about specifying a _grocery store_ or _produce market_ was
good.
Think of a user with a new PC, loaded with software.
Tell them, to do spreadsheets, run the program.
It may save them time, by knowing which program.
BTW: In the context of the exercise, would it be OK to tell them to touch
or smell the lettice? Cabbage has a rubbery texture, while lettice is more
leafy...
Interesting test.
