Today’s SAT question of the day is an improving sentences question about chocolate chip cookies. The original sentence that we need to improve:

All of the ingredients for Pablo’s secret chocolate chip cookie recipe, which included the special dark chocolate, was available in his mother’s pantry.

If we simplify the sentence, it says:

All the ingredients was in the pantry.

The correct version would say:

All the ingredients were in the pantry. (“Ingredients” is plural”, so we need “were”, not “was”.)

Only choice E has the were that we need.  B is out of the running because we wouldn’t say, “All the ingredients they were in the pantry.”
