    Which is the best spread to use when creating a moisture barrier?

    • A. 

      Butter

    • B. 

      Mayonnaise

    • C. 

      Vegetable puree

    • D. 

      Cooking

    Correct Answer
    C. Vegetable puree
    Explanation
    Vegetable puree is the best spread to use when creating a moisture barrier because it is made from pureed vegetables, which have a high water content. This high water content helps to create a barrier that traps moisture and prevents it from escaping, keeping the food moist and flavorful. Butter and mayonnaise, on the other hand, have a higher fat content and may not provide as effective of a moisture barrier. Cooking is not a spread and therefore not suitable for creating a moisture barrier.
