Cannot Pass Challenge 2 of 6: SQL Set Operations Review (Fruit and Vegetables)

Hi all,

I'm attempting to pass Challenge 2 of 6 for SQL Set Operations Review (Fruit and Vegetables). The question asks us to create a UNION that shows all fruits and veggies between the letters A and K. I'm using the below code. I ran in SQL Playground under different variables and it worked, but it's not working here:

SELECT Name FROM Fruit
    WHERE Name < "K"
UNION
SELECT Name FROM Vegetable
    WHERE Name < "K";

I saw that another student about 1 year ago also posted a question with similar results (she used BETWEEN "A%" AND "K%"). How can I pass this question to continue ASAP? Thank you!

Instead of Name < "K", try Name < "L" to include names that start with "K" in the result.
