with is unnecessary here. the clause after the comma must modify "styles of cooking" each a product of does this.

the choices given are modifier clauses and they are supposed to modify 'Styles'

Usage of 'With' in 'A' & 'B' doesn't modify Styles - usage is awkward and modifies companies

In the remaining choices

Each is always singular so 'D' seems to be right one

D too but reveal your answer later. first let the members work on it.

with is almost always wrong as a modifying phrase.

Very good question kaijen.

Its between B and D . But except for "its" in B how to concretely eliminate B?

D is more succint but I think an explanation to how to eliminate B would be good

Thanks!

between B and D too and ended with D.
Though I feel that D should have "of which" or some sort, I think it is still the best answer. B has no clear reference of "its" and a comma with before "with" (Fistail point this out) is not preferred.

another vote for D, B is eliminated since 'with' seems odd.

Easy one!

D

eliminate A and C because of pronoun error Their
eliminate E because products needs to be singular because of each
eliminate B awkward structure

Do not choose option which starts with 'with' unless you are very sure about it. More often than not 'with' makes a sentence awkward.

My answer is D.
