    • School kids in 17 states eat cherry burgers.

    • Some students in Colorado, Maryland, and Florida are eating burgers that have prunes in them.

    • Blueberries contain a cancer fighting substance.

    Correct Answer
    A. Erin probably wouldn't like a blueberry burger.
    Explanation
    The statement "Erin probably wouldn't like a blueberry burger" is an opinion because it expresses a personal belief or preference. It is based on the assumption that Erin may not enjoy the combination of flavors in a blueberry burger, which can vary from person to person.

    Look at the chart that lists percentages.  Which statement is untrue (not true) ?

    • 31% of schools offer meat or meat alternatives daily.

    • Most schools do not offer fruits or juices daily.

    • All schools offer milk daily.

    • Over 90% of schools offer vegetables daily.

    Correct Answer
    A. Most schools do not offer fruits or juices daily.
    Explanation
    The statement "Most schools do not offer fruits or juices daily" is untrue because the chart shows that over 90% of schools offer vegetables daily, implying that a majority of schools do offer some type of food daily. Since fruits and juices are commonly offered alongside vegetables, it can be inferred that most schools also offer fruits or juices daily.

    • "Wow, that was great."

    Correct Answer
    A. "You don't see the cherry."
