凤梨，菠萝。
奇异果，猕猴桃。
番茄，西红柿。
樱桃，车里子。
葡萄，提子。
龙眼，桂圆。

Just different name use in Singapore and China. Actually they are the same but there are people who still insist that there are slight difference.

Not everyone speak hokkien in sg mah. And it is true no Singaporean use mandarin 土豆。

potato = 馬鈴薯
Peanuts = 花生 （toh-dao in hokkien)

土豆 do not mean potato in sg. Using 土豆 to describe potato is a wrong usage in sg.
