I eventually got "seafood" but you might consider adding many of the specific edible things as acceptable answers. For example, shellfish. (seaweed, catfish, dogfish, swordfish...)

I think the landlord question is a bit ambiguous, I would never have thought it meant someone who rents out property, I thought it was referring to a tenant.

I changed the clue, but I was tempted to leave it the same because it was correct before. A landlord does rent property. The verb rent applies to both sides of the rental transaction.

Landlord is a person who owns the property not the person who rents it.

landlords dont have to own the property...they could be hired by the owners to make sure the property is rented..but I could see the wording changed to be. "Person that handles the renting of a property"

agreed, never would have thought landlord. Maybe you could change the question to make the answer "homeowner" or something?

What about Watermelon for the green-skinned melon?

Read the clue and you would never say watermelon. They don't have green flesh.
