Question

3. Andrea is considering adding baked chicken instead of steak to her fettuccini Alfredo. Go to NutritionCalc Plus and enter these two items: beef flank steak, brolled, choice, lean, O" trim, URMIS 2399 (USDA) chicken breast, roasted, skinless (USDA) Enter 3 ounce-weight as the quantity of each item. Next, go to the Reports tab and generate a Spreadsheet Report to compare the total fat (Fat(9)) and saturated fat (Fat-S(g)] content of these two items. Compared to the steak, the chicken contains 4 g less total fat and 2 g less saturated fat. O2 g less total fat and 4g less saturated fat. 10 g less total fat and 4 g less saturated fat. O 3 g less total fat and 1g less saturated fat. 4. How would using olive oil instead of butter change the fatty acid composition of the Fettuccini Alfredo? It would increase total fat content and decrease monounsaturated fat content. It would decrease total fat content and increase saturated fat content It would increase monounsaturated fat content and decrease saturated fat content. It would increase polyunsaturated fat content and no effect on saturated fat content.

Answer 1

1. Compared to the streak,the chicken contain--2gm less total fat and 4 gm less saturated fat.(streak contain 5 gm fat, chicken contain 2.6 gm fat and streak contains 2.3 gm saturated fat, chicken contains 0.5 gm saturated fat).
2. Olive oil instead of butter change the fatty acid composition --It would increased monosaturated fat content and decrease saturated fat content (olive oil contain monosaturated fat 73%and saturated fat 14%).
