Commentary for Berakhot 81:2

היו לפניו מינין הרבה כו': אמר עולא מחלוקת בשברכותיהן שוות דרבי יהודה סבר מין שבעה עדיף ורבנן סברי מין חביב עדיף אבל בשאין ברכותיהן שוות ד"ה מברך על זה וחוזר ומברך על זה

If there were several kinds of food before him, etc. 'Ulla said : The difference of opinion arises when the benediction is the same for them ; for R. Judah holds that one of the seven species is to be given preference, whereas the Rabbis hold that the kind which is best liked should be given preference. Where, however, the benediction is not the same, all agree that he should first say it over that which he likes best and then say it over the others.
