Explanation / Answer

ANSWER 7.
a. Protein - This is the central dogma of life DNA -> RNA -> Protein

ANSWER 8.
190 calories per serving, 13 servings per container = 190*13 = 2470 cal = 2.470 kcal

ANSWER 9.
1 serving of food has 3g dietary fiber, so 3 servings have 9g

ANSWER 10.
Calories in 1 serving = 190, Calories in 1 serving (from fat) = 150
% of calories in 1 serving coming from fat = (150 / 190) * 100 = 78.94%

ANSWER 11.
Technically speaking only about 1/10 of the weight of one serving (32 grams) is saturated fat (3.5 grams).
Even that 3.5 grams is 18% of the recommended daily intake value. As such it seems like a pretty valid good choice in a diet trying to curb this saturated fat intake.
