Answer to Question 1

A, B
Feedback:
One choice from the starch, fruit, and milk list provides approximately 15 g carbohydrate; any item from any of these lists can be substituted for another.

Answer to Question 2

B
The number of kcals in a product is stated for a standard serving size of that food. The client needs to multiply the kcals per serving by the number of servings in the container to know how many kcals it contains. The calories from fat are not related to the total number of kcals in the food. The  Daily Value describes the nutrient content of the food rather than its caloric value. The ingredient list does not give any information about kcals.
