Jamboree Question of the Day - Day 79, Jan 29th 2011

Following the nutrition board’s advice on salt consumption would mean a virtual end of the use of salt in cooking, an avoidance of obviously salty foods,and reducing the reliance on processed foods that contain significant amounts of often hidden sodium.

(A) reducing the reliance on processed foods that contain significant amounts of often hidden sodium
(B) reducing the reliance on processed foods containing often hidden but significant amounts of sodium
(C) a reduction of the reliance on processed foods, containing as they do often hidden sodium in significant amounts
(D) a reduced reliance on the significant amounts of hidden sodium often contained in processed foods
(E) a reduced reliance on processed foods that contain significant but often hidden amounts of sodium

Solution (Posted on Jan 30th):

An avoidance of...., and a reduced reliance on... is parallel. Though C is parallel too, containing as they do.. is wrong meaning. Choice D reliance on significant amounts is wrong, the reliance is on the foods. E is the best answer.
