Answer 1

1. 2 Granola bars each of 42 grams constitutes 2 servings.
2. 63 calories are from fat (7 * 9 = 63)
3. Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil

The label shows 0gm trans fat because the product contains less than 0.5 gm of it and thus can be labeled trans-fat free.

1. a. 33 % (63 cals)

b. 63 % (120 cals)

c. 4% (8 cals)

       5.   Whole Grain Oats

       6.   Sugar, Fructose, Honey

       7.   Sunflower oil, Palm oil

       9.   14 grams of sugar.

              It is too much for a single serving of snack bar as the daily limit of sugar intake should be around 25 and 37 gm (female and male respectively).

       10.    Strawberry Powder
