Question

amanda enjoys desserts (especially ice cream), but she would like to eat less of them. what is one strategy she can use to reduce the amount of dessert she eats?
amanda can serve the ice cream in a larger bowl.
amanda should buy a variety of five different chocolate desserts to eat instead.
amanda can serve herself ice cream using a large scoop.
amanda can buy one kind of ice cream to limit her choices.

Explanation:

• Serving in a larger bowl (Option 1) might lead to more ice - cream being taken as the bowl can hold more.
• Buying a variety of five different chocolate desserts (Option 2) increases the number of desserts, which is likely to increase overall dessert consumption.
• Using a large scoop (Option 3) will result in larger portions of ice - cream.
• Buying one kind of ice - cream (Option 4) limits choices. When there are fewer choices, there is less temptation to over - consume as there is not a wide range of flavors to keep eating different ones.

Answer:

Amanda can buy one kind of ice cream to limit her choices.
