It seems to me you're trying to select the data, and not count it. Maybe a complete drop/create/insert/select cycle of this helps you:
-- drop table if exists supermarket; -- will completely erase the whol
+e table, uncomment only if safe :)
-- create a new table:
create table supermarket (fruit text, color text, supermarket_id integ
+er);
-- insert data:
insert into supermarket (fruit, color, supermarket_id)
values ('Orange', 'yellow', 1);
insert into supermarket (fruit, color, supermarket_id)
values ('Orange', 'green' , 2);
insert into supermarket (fruit, color, supermarket_id)
values ('Orange', 'blue' , 3);
insert into supermarket (fruit, color, supermarket_id)
values ('Grape' , 'black' , 1);
insert into supermarket (fruit, color, supermarket_id)
values ('Strawberry', 'blue' , 1);
insert into supermarket (fruit, color, supermarket_id)
values ('Mellon' , 'red' , 2);
insert into supermarket (fruit, color, supermarket_id)
values ('Mellon' , 'green' , 2);
insert into supermarket (fruit, color, supermarket_id)
values ('Mellon' , 'white' , 1);
insert into supermarket (fruit, color, supermarket_id)
values ('Banana', 'black' , 1);
-- select data:
select
fruit,
color,
supermarket_id
from
supermarket
where
supermarket_id in (1,2)
and fruit = 'Orange'
order by
fruit
/* -- resultset:
"Orange", "yellow", 1
"Orange", "green" , 2
*/
(SQL is code and can (should?) be formatted)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
