Answer to Question 2

One could consult a diet analysis program, a food nutrient index of a nutrition book, or the www.ChooseMyPlate.g ov website. For example, one could look for a fruit that supplies the highest level of fiber, or folate, or another nutrient. If a particular food shows up in the top 5-10 contributors for more than one nutrient, it would be considered nutrient dense.
