• A. Vanilla milkshake
• B. Buttered popcorn
• C. Tossed green salad
• D. Toast with jelly

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is a 'Tossed green salad.' Clients with Crohn's disease often benefit from a low-residue diet, which includes easily digestible foods like leafy green vegetables found in a tossed green salad. This type of diet helps minimize gastrointestinal symptoms. Choices A, B, and D are not ideal for clients with Crohn's disease. Vanilla milkshake, buttered popcorn, and toast with jelly may exacerbate symptoms due to their high fat, fiber, or sugar content, which can be harder to digest.

• B. It is not affected by seasonal changes in the diet
• C. It is not effective for monitoring short-term changes in food intake
• D. It does not take too long to obtain the results

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Option C is correct because a food frequency questionnaire is designed to capture a person's typical food intake over an extended period and is not suitable for monitoring short-term changes in diet. The questionnaire's purpose is to provide insights into long-term dietary patterns rather than immediate changes. Option A is incorrect as the questionnaire does not influence food choices; it merely records them. Option B is also incorrect because, while seasonal changes can impact food availability and thereby influence diet, the questionnaire itself is not affected by these changes. Lastly, option D is incorrect as the time to obtain results from a food frequency questionnaire would depend on the respondent's speed and accuracy rather than being intrinsically linked to the questionnaire.
