*CULTURAL QA 06-2023-10* Q1 Is bakery bread healthy?
Overall, bakery bread can be a healthy option if you choose wisely. Look for whole-grain bread with minimal added sugars and fats, and enjoy it in moderation as part of a balanced diet. KR That is the answer, so healthy or not? How to choose bread shops? Q2 Why is blending fruit bad? Do fruits lose nutrients when blended? *Does blending a banana make it unhealthy?* Blending fruit itself is not inherently bad, and it can be a convenient way to consume fruits and obtain their nutrients. Remember that the impact of blending on nutrient loss is generally modest compared to the overall nutritional value of fruits. KR: What is the answer ? What is he trying to tell? The answerer is a marketing man; yesterday fruit salad was good but in one day totally changed but added a nuisance value only. Q3 What would happen if you flew a plane over an earthquake? KR IT WAS A FINE JOKE HUMOUR IN UNIFORM. *Compiled and posted by R.
