Answer: Ham sandwich with mustard, carrots and cheesy dip

Primary hypertension has no identifiable cause and it's the most common type of hypertension.
The menu, Ham sandwich with mustard and cheesy dip, indicates that the client needs better diet education because those foods increase the fat and sodium content, known for causing hypertension.
