Something i observed, that here 'But' is used in an independent clause. Shall i take this usage as plausible since this is an OG question although used in a CR question ?

I hate the GMAT so much omg. I got the answer wrong but upon analysis - it makes more sense. my reasoning led me to keep answers B & C in contention.
the existing rule : food packages must list the number of calories per food serving.
serving sizes are small and should be updated.
serving sizes were set when people ate smaller portions
today people eat more and consume more calories than the package indicates
package labeling should reflected changes in serving size.
Which of the following is the main point of the consumer advocate's argument?
A. The number of calories per serving listed on most food packages in the consumer advocate's nation is misleadingly small.: the number of calories is fine. calories per serving is small. eliminate.
B. Most serving sizes used on food packages in the consumer advocate's nation should be increased to reflect today's typical portion sizes: yes. correct
C. People eating typical portions today often consume far more calories than the number of calories per serving listed on food packages in the consumer advocate's nation: people eat more calories than listed on the package. this is an intermediate conclusion which leads him to suggest that companies need to update their serving sizes. eliminate.
D. The serving sizes used on food packages in the consumer advocate's nation were set when people ate smaller portions on average than they do today.: intermediate conclusion. not final/ main point. eliminate.
E. The use of misleadingly small serving sizes on food packages in the consumer advocate's nation probably leads many people to consume more calories than they otherwise would: might be true in real world that people look at serving sizes at consume food but not mentioned in the question.

avigutman - are the yellow highilghts - the same ?
Is "Food Serving", the same thing as "Serving size" ?
My first thought was -- food serving and serving size were VERY DIFFERENT
Here is how I thought of them as different.
2nd attempt : After doing google research -
SEVERAL serving sizes ADD UP to 1 food serving
