the purpose of the passage is to

"describe tofu."

Explanation:

Let's look at the choices: The answer "evaluate Oriental cooking" cannot be the answer because the passage does not talk about Oriental cooking enough in the passage for this to be the answer. The answer "persuade you to eat low-cholesterol foods" cannot be the answer because the passage is informational, therefor, the author is not trying to persuade anything to anyone. The answer "to compare tofu with meat" cannot be the answer because meat is not mentioned in the passage at all. This leaves us with the answer "describe tofu".

Hope this helps! :-)
