I learnt a method of how to find out how to see the difference between high-fat and low-fat chips.I have also learnt that carrots can help you see in the dark but also scientists say that carrots can help you see in the dark and the carrots can’t help you at  the same time so the answer is yes-no.I also learnt that some companies have false advertisement .I learnt that people had to lie about their products to get rich.
