A food manufacturer is advertising a new cake mix as fat-free.  Scientists at the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are test the product to see if it truly lacks fat.  Hydrolysis of the cake mix yields glucose, fructose, glycerol, a number of amino acids, and several kinds of molecules with long hydrocarbon chains.  Further analysis shows that most of the hydrocarbon chains have a carboxyl group at one end.  What would you tell the food manufacturer if you were the spokesperson of the FDA?
