You are grouping by the condition category_name = 'Meat' This has two possible values (0 , 1) so you get 1 row for each value. Tubers just happens to be one of those where the condition evaluates to 0. You should GROUP BY <column name> Don't use SELECT *. Specify column names that you need. CROSS JOIN gives every combination of rows in table A joined with rows in table B so why would you want that here? For example Table A TableB ------- ------ a 1 b 2 c 3 SELECT a.col, b.col FROM tableA a CROSS JOIN tableB b; a 1 a 2 a 3 b 1 b 2 b 3 c 1 c 2 c 3 You seem to have gone overboard with unnecessary subqueries too. Try mysql> SELECT o.id -> , o.order_id -> , p.id -> , p.product_name -> , c.id -> , c.category_name -> FROM order_table o -> INNER JOIN product p ON o.product_id = p.id -> INNER JOIN category c ON p.product_category = c.id -> WHERE category_name = 'meat'; +----+----------+----+--------------+----+---------------+ | id | order_id | id | product_name | id | category_name | +----+----------+----+--------------+----+---------------+ | 4 | 10004 | 4 | Beef | 4 | Meat | +----+----------+----+--------------+----+---------------+

I'll eat my words. I couldn't resist the challenge so, having slept on it, I wrote a an SQL function "isConsecutive(dates)" to find records where there are fewer than 10 dates and they are consecutive.
