Nowadays, a lot of people have put their career and education as the first priority in their life. Food is just something used to stop their stomach from distracting their brain. In any supermarket, we can find a wide range of preprocessed foods, like pizza, hamburger, instant noodles, prepared salad and so on. People just grab anything to fill their stomach. Does the preprocessed food really improve our life? It is something that I can't agree.
Preprocessed food has lost its mineral and vitamin contents which are vital elements for the health. It also often contains chemicals like preservative, coloring and MSG, which are harmful to the human body. The number of people suffer from obesity, high cholesterol and high blood pressure is increasing, which is one of the main result of the preprocessed food.
The fine art of cooking is dying out. As laziness is one of human¡¯s traits, people will not do the cooking even when they have the time to do so, since they have the option of preprocessed food. The fun of cooking meals together as a family has become a luxury. This is a pity as people have given up a good way to fasten the family bonding. Mother¡¯s cooking would no longer be missed by most of the people in the next generation.
No doubt, preprocessed food makes the life of people more convenient. But it doesn't really improve our life, as it causes a lot of health problem, and it also loosen family bonding.
