The most commercially used plant in the order is [[tea]] (''Camellia sinensis'') from the family [[Theaceae]]. The order also includes some edible fruits, including [[kiwifruit]] (esp. [[Actinidia chinensis var. deliciosa|''Actinidia chinensis'' var. ''deliciosa'']]), [[persimmon]] (genus ''Diospyros''), [[blueberry]], [[huckleberry]], [[cranberry]], [[Brazil nut]], and [[Mamey sapote]]. The order also includes [[Vitellaria|shea]] (''Vitellaria paradoxa''), which is the major dietary lipid source for millions of sub-Saharan Africans.
