More and more people are opting for readymade food instead of freshly cooked food. Does this practice has more advantages than disadvantages? Discuss.

#people #readymade #food #practice
It is certainly true that the
food
 industry has changed the eating and cooking habits of people. Owing to
this
, many people prefer to eat canned
food
 rather than cooking in their kitchen using fresh vegetables. In my opinion,
this
 trend has only a few advantages, but on the greater side, people are compromising with their
health
 and taste for the little comfort. One obvious advantage of packaged
food
 is that it has saved time of people that was
initially
 spent in the kitchen for preparing
food
. In Asian countries, specifically ladies have to prepare
food
 for the whole family and she has to spend more of his day in preparing three times of meal and left with less or no time for other activities of their interest and after sometimes, due to
this
 monotonous life, they start feeling mundane.
Therefore
, ready-made
food
 has made their life relaxed and more comfortable.
However
, ready-made packaged
food
 is unhealthy for people if consumed regularly because chemicals and preservatives are added in it to make it consumable for a long time, which ultimately have detrimental effects on the
health
 of individuals.
Hence
,
this
 is the major reason for today's lifestyle diseases
such
 as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, cancer and any more.
Moreover
, packaged
food
 is less tasty than freshly prepared
food
, because it loses the natural aroma of ingredients and spices that were used to prepare
food
. To conclude, canned
food
 has provided ease and convenience for busy people, but it has
also
 brought many
health
 issues on the
health
 of the general public. So in my opinion,
this
 trend has more disadvantages than advantages
