Answer
A
Which cereal's box is the best color?
B
Which cereal tastes the best to every eater?
C
Which cereal contains the most sugar?
D
Which cereal would sell the most boxes?

Explanation

The company can use scientific tools to measure the sugar content of each cereal and compare the amounts. “Which cereal contains the most sugar?” has an objective, measurable answer. The other questions ask about preferences or predict what buyers will do, which cannot be answered by measurement alone.
