A recent taste test reveals that most people like low-fat chocolate ice cream as much as its full-fat counterpart. Previous tests with vanilla ice cream found that people tended to dislike low-fat versions, complaining of a harsher taste. Chemists point out that chocolate is a very complex flavor, requiring around 500 distinct chemical compounds to produce it. Hence, this complexity probably masks any difference in taste due to the lack of fat.
Which one of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?
(A) Most people prefer full-fat chocolate ice cream to full-fat vanilla ice cream.
(B) The subjects of the previous tests were not informed of the difference in fat content.
(C) The more distinct compounds required to produce a flavor, the better people like it.
(D) Vanilla is known to be a significantly less complex flavor than chocolate.
(E) Most people are aware of the chemical complexities of different flavors.

**Argument is that though people tend to dislike low fat version bcoz of harsher taste, it ain't the case with chocolate as its production require a numerous chemical compounds that hide the difference in taste and as such the recent survey show the equal result***
Which one of the following, if true, most strengthens the argument?
(A) Most people prefer full-fat chocolate ice cream to full-fat vanilla ice cream.***no connection to the argument as this is just a mere comparison***
(B) The subjects of the previous tests were not informed of the difference in fat content.****irrelevant since its not connected to argument and also even though the subjects had been informed still they would have preferred the full-fat as its taste was good***
(C) The more distinct compounds required to produce a flavor, the better people like it.****though this talks about distinct flavors but fails to address the complexity part which helps hide the harsh taste even of low fat chocolate ice creams****
(D) Vanilla is known to be a significantly less complex flavor than chocolate.****this when true actually strengthens the argument bcoz if Vanilla is less complex then the harsh taste of low-fat ice creams is not masked and a harsher taste is experienced whereas in case of chocolate the complexity favors.******
(E) Most people are aware of the chemical complexities of different flavors.***irrelevant as the passage doesn't talk about other different flavours
