You could play with the category hierarchy in combination with DBpedia
Ontology types:
1) subcategories of foods (1 level down) that are also in the category
"vegetables"
SELECT DISTINCT ?subject WHERE {
?subject <http://purl.org/dc/terms/subject> <
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Category:Vegetables>.
?subject <http://purl.org/dc/terms/subject> ?subcategory .
?subcategory <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#broader> <
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Category:Foods>.
} LIMIT 100
2) things in the food category that are plants
SELECT DISTINCT ?subject WHERE {
?subject rdf:type <http://dbpedia.org/ontology/Plant>.
?subject <http://purl.org/dc/terms/subject> ?subcategory .
?subcategory <http://www.w3.org/2004/02/skos/core#broader> <
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Category:Foods>.
} LIMIT 100
And so on.
Remember that DBpedia is restricted by what is in Wikipedia and further by
what can be extracted from Wikipedia. There is little the dbpedia
developers can do individually about the former, but if you see problems
with the latter, please ping the list.
Cheers,
Pablo

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure
contains a definitive record of customers, application performance,
security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this
data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense.
