Hi teacher,
How about your choice?

If somebody is good to you that means he did something nice for you. We wouldn't normally think of vegetables that way.

Yes, except say: "Vegetables are good for you." (Plural subject, plural verb.)

But fruit (uncountable) IS good for you.

That is very good, I know how to differentiate "good at" and "good for".
