Accepted Answer

# Brief Explanations:
- Option A: The text says "The food laws made most bugs off - limits", so it explains why most bugs were not eaten.
- Option B: The text implies religious food laws (like not eating pigs) led to no pig bones, so it's explained.
- Option C: The text says they packed dried fruits (figs, dates, apricots, grapes) on long journeys as snacks. Wait, no—wait, the question is what the article does NOT say. Wait, no, re - check: The text says "They also packed these dried fruits on long journeys. The snacks gave travelers an extra energy boost." So it does say what snacks they took? Wait, no, the option is "what snacks ancient Hebrews took on long journeys"—the text says dried fruits (figs, dates, apricots, grapes) were packed. Wait, no, maybe I misread. Wait, the other options: Option D: The text doesn't mention when archaeologists dug up the first - century CE landfill. Wait, no, let's re - analyze each option:
  - Option A: The article says "The food laws made most bugs off - limits" which explains why they didn't eat most bugs.
  - Option B: The context of food laws (like not eating pigs) can explain why no pig bones were found.
  - Option C: The article says "They also packed these dried fruits on long journeys. The snacks gave travelers an extra energy boost." So it does say what snacks (dried fruits like figs, dates, etc.) they took on long journeys? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, the question is "The Article does not say ______". Wait, no, let's check Option D: The article doesn't mention when archaeologists dug up the first - century CE landfill. Wait, no, let's check the options again. Wait, the correct answer is C? No, wait, no—wait, the text says they packed dried fruits (figs, dates, apricots, grapes) on long journeys. So it does say what snacks they took. Wait, then what's the correct answer? Wait, no, maybe I misread Option C. Wait, Option C is "what snacks ancient Hebrews took on long journeys"—the text says they took dried fruits (figs, dates, apricots, grapes). Wait, but let's check Option D: The article doesn't mention when archaeologists dug up the first - century CE landfill. Wait, the text has no information about the time of the excavation. Wait, I think I made a mistake earlier. Let's re - check:
    - Option A: Explained by "food laws".
    - Option B: Explained by food laws (no pig eating, so no pig bones).
    - Option C: The article says they packed dried fruits (figs, dates, apricots, grapes) on long journeys, so it does say what snacks. Wait, no, maybe the option is different. Wait, no, the correct answer is D? Wait, no, the original question is "The Article does not say ______". Let's check each option again:
      - Option A: The article provides a reason (food laws) for not eating most bugs.
      - Option B: The food laws (like not eating pigs) can be inferred as the reason for no pig bones.
      - Option C: The article states the snacks (dried fruits: figs, dates, apricots, grapes) taken on long journeys.
      - Option D: The article does not mention the time when archaeologists dug up the first - century CE landfill. Wait, but the option D is "when archaeologists dug up a first century CE landfill"—the article has no information about the time of the excavation. Wait, but earlier I thought Option C was covered, but maybe I was wrong. Wait, no, the text says "They also packed these dried fruits on long journeys. The snacks gave travelers an extra energy boost." So it does say what snacks (dried fruits) they took. So the article does say what snacks they took on long journeys. Then the article does NOT say when archaeologists dug up the first - century CE landfill (Option D)? Wait, no, the option D is "when archaeologists dug up a first century CE landfill"—the article has no information about the time of the excavation. But wait, the original options: Let me check the image again. The options are:
        - A. why ancient Hebrews did not eat most bugs
        - B. why archaeologists did not find pig bones in ancient trash
        - C. what snacks ancient Hebrews took on long journeys
        - D. when archaeologists dug up a first century CE landfill
      - For Option A: The article says "The food laws made most bugs off - limits" so it explains why.
      - For Option B: The food laws (prohibiting pig consumption) explain why no pig bones were found.
      - For Option C: The article says "They also packed these dried fruits (figs, dates, apricots, grapes) on long journeys. The snacks gave travelers an extra energy boost." So it does say what snacks they took.
      - For Option D: The article does not mention the time when archaeologists dug up the first - century CE landfill. Wait, but the user's question is a multiple - choice, and we need to find what the article does NOT say. But wait, maybe I made a mistake with Option C. Wait, the option is "what snacks ancient Hebrews took on long journeys"—the article says they took dried fruits (figs, dates, apricots, grapes). So it does say that. Then the article does NOT say when archaeologists dug up the landfill (Option D). But wait, the initial analysis was wrong. Wait, no, let's re - read the article: The article has no information about the time of the excavation of the first - century CE landfill. So Option D is what the article does not say. Wait, but the original thought was Option C, but that's incorrect. Wait, no, the text says "They also packed these dried fruits on long journeys. The snacks gave travelers an extra energy boost." So it does say what snacks (dried fruits: figs, dates, apricots, grapes) they took. So Option C is covered. Then Option D: The article doesn't mention when the archaeologists dug up the first - century CE landfill. So the article does not say Option D? Wait, no, the question is "The Article does not say ______", so the correct answer is D? Wait, no, I'm confused. Wait, let's check again:
        - Option A: Covered (food laws).
        - Option B: Covered (food laws, no pig eating).
        - Option C: Covered (dried fruits as snacks on journeys).
        - Option D: Not covered (no mention of when the landfill was dug up).

Wait, but the user's question is a multiple - choice, and we need to find the correct option that the article does not say. So the correct option is D? Wait, no, maybe I made a mistake. Wait, the original text: "The trash shows that ancient Hebrews ate a lot of the same foods we eat today. That includes locusts. They're still a favorite..." There's no mention of when the archaeologists dug up the first - century CE landfill. So Option D is what the article does not say. But wait, the option C: "what snacks ancient Hebrews took on long journeys"—the article says they took dried fruits (figs, dates, apricots, grapes). So it does say that. So the answer is D? Wait, no, the option D is "when archaeologists dug up a first century CE landfill"—the article has no information about the time of the excavation. So the article does not say Option D. But wait, the initial analysis was wrong. Let's confirm:

- A: Explained by "food laws".
- B: Explained by food laws (no pig eating, so no pig bones).
- C: Explained (dried fruits as journey snacks).
- D: Not explained (no time of excavation mentioned).

So the article does not say Option D. Wait, but the user's question is "The Article does not say ______", so the correct answer is D? Wait, no, the option D is "when archaeologists dug up a first century CE landfill"—the article doesn't mention the time, so that's what it doesn't say. But wait, maybe I misread the options. Wait, the options are:

A. why ancient Hebrews did not eat most bugs

B. why archaeologists did not find pig bones in ancient trash

C. what snacks ancient Hebrews took on long journeys

D. when archaeologists dug up a first century CE landfill

So the correct answer is D. But wait, the text says "They also packed these dried fruits on long journeys"—so C is covered. A is covered by "food laws". B is covered by the food laws (no pig eating, so no pig bones). D is not covered. So the article does not say D.

Wait, but the initial mistake was thinking C was not covered, but it is. So the correct option is D.
