    Default lay something up?

    Hi, guys... In the below passage, what does "graininess " mean?

    And.. the answer is (B). I understand that (B) is an answer...

    But how about (A)? WHy not (A)?

    Thank you



    Rectangular ice cream containers require less space and are easier to store

    in your freezer. You can ____________ by side and arrange your other freezer

    items on top. The flat-sided carton also allows for a superior freezing

    processes. It keeps your product fresher and it will have none of the

    "graininess" that irregular freezing can cause.

    'graininess' refers to an uneven, lumpy texture.

    Where are the A and B? Was B 'lay them out' and A 'lay them up'? In that case, A just doesn't work.
