Introduction:
Bread is a simple food and form of wheat. There are various kinds of breads in the market such as white bread, brown bread and many more. Some bread packets are found on which words like multigrain, whole wheat are written by the manufacturer. These breads may not be whole grain bread.
Answer to Problem 1RQ
Correct answer:
Among all the options, option (b) ‘for the order in which whole grains appear on the ingredients list’, is the correct answer.
Explanation of Solution
The consumer must check the ingredient list given in the pack to identify good quality whole grain bread. The ingredients must start with the word whole otherwise the bread is produced only from refined sources. Hence, option (b) is the correct option.
Option (a) ‘for words like multigrain, wheat bread, brown bread or stone ground’ will not help the consumer to identify good quality whole grain bread. Manufacturer sometimes adds color to make the bread appear brown but the bread is not produced from whole grain. So, it is an incorrect option.
Option (c) ‘for the word “unbleached” which indicates that the food is primarily made from whole grains’ will also not help the consumer to get good quality whole grain bread. So, it is an incorrect option.
Option (d) is ‘combination of both (b) and (c)’. As the option (c) is the incorrect answer, then this option is not correct.
Hence, option (a), (c), and (d) are incorrect.
Therefore, it can be concluded that words in which whole grains appear on the ingredients can indicate the presence of the whole grains. Hence, the option (b) is correct answer.
