Today many countries import food from different parts of the world. Is this a positive or negative development?

In

this

day and age, more and more contemporary attention has been placed on the opinion that nowadays, many countries have a tendency to import foreign

food

. From my perspective,

this

trend has both positive and negative developments.

To begin

with, I strongly believe that importing

food

from different parts of the world is an affirmative development.

This

is because ,by virtue of

this

policy from the government, inhabitants living in that nation will be beneficial. To be more specific, they will have a wider range of choices when they go to markets, supermarkets or groceries to purchase

food

and most importantly, the diversity of

food

options may

also

help them buy products having reasonable costs with their budget.

For instance

,

last

year, when the cost of pork meat in my country was high, immediately Vietnam government allowed to import pork meat from different nations

such

as America, Thailand or Laos and thanks to

this

decision, Vietnamese people not only had better and more suitable choices

,

but

also

did not have to concern about the cost of pork meat.

However

, importing foreign

food

has

also

its own drawback.

This

can be explained by the reason that if the quality of that imported one is low, particularly the

food

safety is not guaranteed due to the deficiency of careful verification from the authority, consumers in that country will be negatively affected. To be more detailed, they will be more likely to become vulnerable to a lot of serious diseases,

therefore

weakening people’s health directly. In conclusion, with all the reasons mentioned above, I suppose that imported

food

has its own advantage as well as its own disadvantage.
