Good Tastes, Bad Choices

This is an era of unhealthy food choices—fast food, fake food, and bagged food. All terrible choices, a choice that is causing our society to die off younger because of diseases and look worse because our bodies’ metabolism is slowing down from all of the dangerous substances that we are putting inside it. When people don’t have enough time to cook something and sit and eat to have for dinner, it leads to something to “pop” in the microwave or oven to warm up. Usually, it’s something that comes out of a box, like Ramen noodles or pre-made, frozen pizza. Food used to mean something, cooking it and eating it with your family, telling them the highs and lows of your day. But now, food is just something to eat when you’re hungry and that is what is killing our society. Whenever we get hungry we eat something, and when it’s not a meal time, we end up eating something out of a bag or box, mean it’s artificial. These foods hurt our bodies more and more, and they are only causing diseases for us. Our society is becoming more and more obese every day because we are all too lazy to cook something on our own. Also, because even our fruits and vegetables aren’t organic anymore, there are different hormones in them to make them grow faster or sweeter or larger, we think it helps the company but really, it’s only hurting our bodies. WE as the people of the country need to learn how to remain a healthy eating diet, no matter what it is, to make our country and ourselves as individuals healthier.
