Answer 1

Answer: Low fat cheese cake with raspberries

Step-by-step explanation:

When someone is lactose intolerant, it means the individual is unable to digest large amounts of lactose which is primarily found in milk and milk products and this include cheese. Amongst the options listed in the question, Low-fat cheesecake with raspberries is the most likely not to be tolerated because of the cheese.

Turkey hot dog with mustard does not contain much lactose, neither do bean salad nor grilled veggie burger.

Answer 2

Answer: the correct option is C (Low-fat cheesecake with raspberries).

Explanation: lactose intolerant is a condition that arises due to the inability of a individual to produce the enzyme lactase which helps in the breaking down of lactose into two smaller sugars, glucose and galactose. Ingestion of good containing lactose can lead to abdominal cramps, bloating and diarrhoea. Example of lactose containing food includes:

Cookies, cakes, pies, pastries, desserts with milk,Cream or cheese filled pastries, Fudge, coated candies, & chocolates, Pudding & custard, Sherbet, ice milk, ice cream, Toffee, butterscotch, or caramels and Whipped cream. Therefore Low-fat cheesecake with raspberries is not a diet for a lactose intolerance. Hope this helps. Thanks.
