@Myschool Angela please do the correction on the app, i still got failed by chosing pleasant

The word "disgusting" indicates a strong feeling of aversion or revulsion towards something. To find the opposite, we need a word that conveys a positive or favorable feeling. Soldiers, often exposed to harsh conditions, would likely find cod liver oil beneficial or helpful rather than revolting.
So, the correct choice is B. "medicinal," as soldiers might see cod liver oil as having medicinal benefits despite its unpleasant taste.
