Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale: Cholesterol-free foods are easy to identify. Foods that have cholesterol come from animal sources; cholesterol-free foods do not. Peanut butter is made of creamed peanuts; it does not have butter but is of the consistency of butter, hence the name. Chicken, eggs, and hot dogs come from animal sources.
