More and more people are choosing to eat ready-made meals rather than freshly cooked food. Does this trend have more advantages than disadvantages?

It is generally claimed that the overwhelming majority of

people

prefer eating much more ready

meals

, in comparison with food cooked from fresh ingredients in today's complex society. While I can accept that ready-made

meals

have some positive sides, I truly believe that they are more likely to have more negative factors. One of the main advantages is ready-made

meals

could probably prevent

people

from consuming their valuable

time

. It is obvious that today's

this

case, ready

meals

, as well as takeaways, can be really beneficial for everyone.

However

, I would argue that these merits are outweighed by drawbacks.

First

and foremost, it can be argued that processed foods would possibly bring about various diseases. Of course, if we have it in moderation, these fast foods will not kill us at all.

Nevertheless

, some researchers have shown that certain diseases can be triggered by fast-food

meals

. Another critical issue is that putting weight might absolutely be inevitable for

people

eating ready

meals

on a regular basis.

As a result

, most of us can be easily obese. American

people

are the prime example, whose nutrition consists of processed

meals

. In conclusion, there are several benefits

while you are being busy, along with downsides of takeaways, in terms of diseases. So it seems to me that the potential dangers are more significant than beneficial sides.
