A recent report that artichokes contain a cholesterol-lowering compound called Luteolin apparently had a little effect on consumers. Very few consumers decided to start buying artichokes as a result of the report. However, sales of artichokes in grocery stores increased sharply in June, a month after the report was announced.
Which of the following, if true, best explains the reason for the apparent discrepancy described above?
A. In June, many artichoke suppliers supplied artichokes to grocers at half the price, thus resulting in much cheaper artichoke availability in large quantities to consumers.
B. The growing number of food related reports since January caused consumers to lose interest interest in such news.
C. The report was aired on the radio and also appeared in the newspapers.
D. Though Luteolin is found in many vegetables, the report didi not mention any vegetable other than the artichoke.
E. In May, another report citing that artichokes may be sprayed with pesticides containing cancer causing chemicals was released a week after the first report.

We need to determine what led to a sharp increase in sales of artichokes in month of June.
A. In June, many artichoke suppliers supplied artichokes to grocers at half the price, thus resulting in much cheaper artichoke availability in large quantities to consumers.
Seems correct - it presents a reason why people could have increasingly bought artichoke in month of June.
B. The growing number of food related reports since January caused consumers to lose interest in such news.
Incorrect - it does not explain what led to the sharp increase in sales of artichokes in month of June.
C. The report was aired on the radio and also appeared in the newspapers.
Incorrect - if true, the sale of artichokes should have increased soon after the release of the report.
D. Though Luteolin is found in many vegetables, the report did not mention any vegetable other than the artichoke.
Incorrect - out of scope/context
E. In May, another report citing that artichokes may be sprayed with pesticides containing cancer causing chemicals was released a week after the first report.
Incorrect - if true, the sale of artichokes should have dropped and not increased.
