A Incorrect: Bacon, fried egg, toast and butter, and whole milk would not be the best foods for the toddler. Measures should be taken to help reduce the amount of fat in the toddler's diet by providing low-fat or skim milk, lean meats, and low-fat products (cheese) in order to prevent childhood obesity.
B Correct: Sliced white turkey breast, green beans, and skim milk would be the best foods for the toddler because all these items are low in fat.
C Incorrect: Fried chicken leg, potatoes and gravy, and ice cream would not be the best foods for the toddler because they are high in fat.
D Incorrect: Hot dog, French fries, and pudding would not be the best foods for the toddler because they are high in fat.
