Question

which food would be a poor nutritional choice to make from its food group? apple pie-fruit, cheddar cheese-dairy, salmon-protein, sweet potato-vegetables

Answer 1

Apple pie — because although it contains fruit, it’s largely a pastry: high in added sugars, refined flour and fats, and lower in fiber and micronutrients than whole fruit. The other choices (cheddar — a nutrient-dense dairy source, salmon — a lean protein with omega‑3s, and sweet potato — a nutrient-rich vegetable) are better nutritional picks within their groups.
