What's wrong? Useful Array Methods

var inStock = [ 'apples', 'eggs', 'milk', 'cookies', 'cheese', 'bread', 'lettuce', 'carrot', 'broccoli', 'pizza', 'potato', 'crackers', 'onion', 'tofu', 'frozen dinner', 'cucumber'];
var search;

function print(message) {
  document.write( '<p>' + message + '</p>');
}

while (true){


search = prompt("search for a prdict in our. Type 'list' to show all of the produce and'quit' to exit");
  if (search === "quit"){
   break; 
  }
} 


else if ( search === 'list' ){ //it saids Unexpected token else
  print(inStock.join(', '));

}
