A. Fruits and vegetables are consumed on their own by some and are used in baking by others.
B. The cost of shipping frozen fruits and vegetables is generally lower than shipping them fresh.
C. Cold storage technology has increased the storage life of apples to almost a year.
D. Frozen produce, unlike fresh, is picked at its peak and thus contains a richer nutritional profile.
E. Nutritionists' advice tends to be distorted and reframed by the media.

The most likely answer is D. Frozen produce, unlike fresh, is picked at its peak and thus contains a richer nutritional profile.
This is because freezing locks in the nutrients at their peak level, whereas fresh produce can lose some of its nutritional value during transportation and storage. Therefore, frozen produce can sometimes be a better option nutritionally.

So what? Why would a nutritionist care about this?
B. The cost of shipping frozen fruits and vegetables is generally lower than shipping them fresh. So what? Why would a nutritionist care about this?
C. Cold storage technology has increased the storage life of apples to almost a year. So what? Why would a nutritionist care about this?

Crossing the four options, we are left with only one option - D.
Remember you don't have to find the right answer. You have to find the best answer.
