Lists of countable and uncountable nouns

Hi,

I'd like to know if I can write 'There is some bread, ham, cheese and tomatoes.' or if I need to separate the countable and the uncountable nouns 'There is some bread, ham and cheese and there are some tomatoes.'

Thank you

No. That's bizarre. Nobody separates nouns like that.
