A dialouge completion question? Urgent!

Jenny: It seems that every magazine I pick up has something to say about obesity.

Molly: ..................

Jebby: True. But all this shouting about it isn't altering the trend.

Molly: It may start to do soon . Be patient.

A) Apparently the incidence of obesity has been rising rapidly in japan , too, in recent years.

B) Does it? I wasn't aware of the fact.

C) Yes , I've noticed that too. But I suppose we should be made aware of the fact that it is on the increase

D) I didn't know that. but an article I read the other day suggested that it's not what we eat but how much we eat that affects our weight

E) That could be . The french eat much smaller portions of everything than the Americans do.

I would pick "C", but some say that it must be "D".

What do you think?

Thanks in advance

This is a very poor question. My first thought was also C, but D also works. But because the overall conversation seems to be about the AMOUNT of information out there on obesity, not any specific article, I think C is the better choice.
