Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, D
Feedback:
All four choices are lactose-free and safe for this client to consume if lactose intolerant.

Answer to Question 2

A
Foods containing sucrose (such as cake or other desserts) should be substituted for other carbo-hydrate foods in the meal plan, so he should eat less potatoes and/or rolls. Chicken, gravy, and green beans are low in carbohydrate so he does not need to eat less if he wants to eat dessert.
