Official Solution:
Drop-down 1:
• We are asked to select two food items that both have more than 20 grams of protein per 100 grams of food. Additionally, the two items must come from different food categories.
Looking at the chart, we see that several foods meet the protein requirement — including Peanut, Soybean, and Chicken Breast. However, Peanut and Soybean both belong to the Legume category, so selecting both would violate the condition of using two different categories.
Peanut (Legume) has the lowest cost among qualifying foods. To meet the requirement of using a different category, we must pair Peanut with the lowest-cost item from another category — which is Chicken Breast (Meats).
Drop-down 2:
• We are asked to select two food items that each have at least 15 grams of protein per 100 grams of food. Again, the two items must come from different food categories.
Looking at the chart, Shrimp (Fish) has the highest cost among qualifying foods. To meet the requirement of using a different category, the next most expensive item is Pork Chops (Meats).
Correct answer:
Dropdown 1: "Peanut and Chicken Breast"
Dropdown 2: "Shrimp and Pork Chops"

Just keep in mind the question asks us to select 2 different FOOD CATEGORY. Hence Peanut and Chicken as lowest and Shrimp and Pork as highest.
