     1   Q.   But it would be, for example, as an objective academic you
              would be aware -- no, forget that question.  Just going to
     2        your chart, page 16.
 
     3   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Table 2, page 99.
 
     4   MR. MORRIS:  Table 2.
 
     5   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  99A.
 
     6   MR. MORRIS:  Yes?
              A.  Yes, I am with you.
     7
         Q.   Can you explain what "total for week" under each meal,
     8        McDonald's meal, means?
              A.  Yes, what I have done there is to take a series of
     9        common foods using portion sizes again from the government
              publication on that subject and constructed a diet for the
    10        week using those.  What that shows is that with respect to
              meeting the recommendations for calories, for fat, for
    11        saturated fat, for sugar, for fibre, it is perfectly
              possible to hit the targets and include a selected meal
    12        from McDonald's products.
 
    13   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  One meal?
              A.  One meal from McDonald's, yes, which is indicated --
    14        the choice of meal for each week is shown on the bottom.
 
    15   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Yes.
 
    16   MR. MORRIS:  I do not understand it.  Are you saying, for
              example -- let us just take an example, say, No. 4?
    17        A.  Yes.
 
    18   Q.   McDonald's meal.  Does that mean that if you eat that one
              McDonald's meal in the whole week?
    19        A.  Yes.
 
    20   Q.   Then the other figures below are what you would need to
              catch up or to balance?
    21
         MR. JUSTICE BELL:  No.  What I think (and I hope you will
    22        correct me if I am wrong) each of five specimen weeks,
              Mr. Wheelock has picked one of the five McDonald's meals
    23        which are shown at the bottom, and the numbers in the left
              hand margin, 1 to 5, show you which meal he has chosen.
    24        He has done a week of meals designed to keep within the
              2,500 calories a week limit.  If you multiply 2,500 by 7,
    25        you come to 17 and a half.  Included in that 17.221, for
              instance, is meal number 1, the Quarter Pounder and cheese 
    26        side salad, regular vanilla shake, scoring 843. 
  
    27   MR. MORRIS:  I might be daft ---
 
    28   MR. JUSTICE BELL:  Is that right?
              A.  That is right, yes.
    29
         MR. MORRIS:  -- but what possible value without knowing the
    30        kind of foods you included, they are all different for
              each week, for each meal number, they are different,
