I got seven out of ten. The three I missed: Panama hats, Canary Islands (I knew it had to be something other than the obvious, but didn't know it), and I had no idea where Chinese Gooseberrys were from (I know it wasn't China).

I didn't know what animal the fur for a camel's hair brush came from, or where Chinese Gooesberries were from. I also was only partly correct on cat gut, I figured it came from sheep and goats.
