Question

select the correct answer.
salad dressings can ______ overnight in the fridge, because of the temperature.
a. stale
b. become bitter
c. become thin
d. thicken
e. explode

Explanation:

Salad dressings often contain ingredients like oil and mayonnaise. When refrigerated overnight, the lower temperature can cause the fats in these dressings to solidify or the mixture to thicken. Staling is more associated with bread, becoming bitter is not a common overnight fridge - related change for dressings, becoming thin is the opposite of what usually happens (as cold can cause some components to congeal), and exploding is an extreme and unlikely scenario for a salad dressing in a fridge.

Answer:

D. thicken
