Countable and uncountable nouns and food vocabulary

There are two kinds of nouns in English, countable (things you can count: 'one apple, two apples...'), and uncountable (things you can´t count: 'milk').

Use a /an with singular countable nouns: 'a pinapple', 'an orange'

Use some with plural countable nouns ('I need some tomatoes') and uncountable nouns ('I need some butter') on affirmative sentences.

Use any with plural countable nouns and uncountable nouns in negative sentences and questions: 'I don't have any orange juice / potatoes', 'Do you need any milk / carrots?'

Sometimes we can use some in questions:
offers: 'Would you like some coffee?'
requests: 'Can I have some biscuits?'

Use how much with uncountable nouns: 'How much money do we have now?'
Use how many with plural countable nouns: 'How many people were there at the party?'
