The following passage (paragraph 3) is mainly used to show that .
Concerns about obesity, food allergies and other health effects of food are fueling a new level of scrutiny of chemicals and additives in foods and contribute to shifting notions about portion size, sugar and fat content. Consumption of sugary sodas has dropped to a 30-year low while sales of bottled and flavored water rose dramatically over the past few decades. Zero-calorie diet sodas long held allure for Americans concerned about their weight, but sales of diet sodas have also dropped, with at least some arguing that the decline has been fueled by growing public concern about ingesting artificial sweeteners and other food additives. America’s love affair with fast-food chains is on the wane, with “fast casual” brands that offer convenient options which focus on natural, fresh ingredients gaining favor.
Answer choices for the above question
the authors’ claim that public attitudes towards the healthy foods has changed over the past few years is based on statistical evidence
the fact that Americans no longer drink sugary sodas is evidence that Americans understand healthy eating habits
the reason public views conflict with those of scientists is due to America’s persistent love affair with fast food
The authors’ claim that Americans understand healthy eating is supported by their recent refusal to eat at fast-food chains
