Why is adding local availability important in food-group-based planning?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Because it makes the plan practical and accessible
A food-group plan becomes useful only when its recommended foods can actually be found, afforded, prepared, and accepted by the family. Local and seasonal foods may provide suitable nutrients at lower cost and with better availability. Substitutions within the same food group can preserve nutritional balance while improving feasibility.
