Answer 1

Breakfast cereal: WHOLE GRAIN WHEAT, CORN MEAL, SUGAR, RAISINS
Ice cream: Milk, Cream, Skim Milk, Sugar
Candy bar: MILK CHOCOLATE (SUGAR, COCOA BUTTER, CHOCOLATE
Canned fruit: fruit juice concentrated, pear, cherries, apples, peaches
Soda: CARBONATED WATER, HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, CARAMEL COLOR,

After reading these I was surprised of how much sugar and carbs there were many of them

I think the most nutritious food was the canned fruit

I think the least nutritious from them was the soda because it had so much sugar and carbonated things

Answer 2

Breakfast cereal: corn syrup, xanthan gum, sugar, oats

ice cream: high fructose corn syrup, oreos, sugar, milk

candy bar: red 40, corn syrup, milk, xanthan extract

frozen fruit: high fructose corn syrup, strawberry extract, peach juice, concentrated orange extract

soda: carbonated water, corn syrup, red 40, yellow 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Yes. There was a ton of conr syrup and overall unhealthy ingredients/chemicals. The most nutritious was probably the frozen fruit, although it did have a lot of chemicals, atleast it had some type of fruit. The cereal was most likely the least healthy because it contains an indgredient "Trisodium phosphate" which is used to strip the paint off of walls
