question 72
which of the following is an example of a food that is not processed or minimally processed?
○ sausage
○ hamburger bun
○ eggs
○ cakes

Explanation:

Question 72 (Food Processing Classification)

To determine the minimally processed food, we analyze each option:

• Sausage: Processed (contains additives, preserved).
• Hamburger bun: Baked (processed, requires mixing, baking).
• Eggs: Minimally processed (direct from source, little to no processing).
• Cakes: Baked (processed with multiple ingredients, baking).

Eggs are in their natural state or minimally altered, unlike the others which undergo more processing.

Answer:

B. Eggs (assuming the option order is Sausage, Hamburger bun, Eggs, Cakes; adjust identifier if needed, e.g., the third option "Eggs" is correct)
