Students have asked these similar questions
Desiccation, a time-honored method of preserving food, is effective because the
water content is too low to support metabolic function.
freezing step of the process kills microbes.
salt concentration is too low to support metabolic function.
heat of the process kills microbes.
UV light used in the process of sun drying penetrates effectively.
Which of the following is true if a product is a good source of whole grain?
the ingredients list should list a whole grain as the first ingredient (e.g. 100% whole grain)
if a whole grain is listed first, it should not be followed by a bunch of refined grains such as enriched flour.
all of the above
none of the above.
If high temperatures are most effective at killing microbes, what statement correctly explains why some food products are treated with temperatures below the boiling point of water?
Extremely high temperatures would destroy the food's nutritional value.
Extremely high temperatures would significantly lower the food's shelf life.
Extremely high temperatures can destroy the food's desirable characteristics.
Extremely high temperatures promote the growth of some microbes.
