Default Need reference in adjacent column returned

I have two columns with multiple sets of data, based on the entered value I
need the corresponding header returned.

For example:
Column A Column B
Apples Green
Red
Granny Smith
Mutsu
Red Delicious

Oranges Naval
Manderin
Clementine
Tangerine

Now based on a response in another sheet I need to return either "Apple" or
"Orange".

=INDEX('Fruit'!A1:A65535,MATCH(K50,'Fruit'!B:B6553 5,0)) will work if I copy
Apple next to each apple type, but for other items the list of options can
grow dramatically.

Thanks

Dan
