Ready-made

nowadays seems to be more attractive to

that results in their refusal to cook at

. While some opponents argue that

such

a choice has demerits, personally, I believe that it

is regarded as fresh and nutritious, ready-made

is believed to not guarantee its quality for providing with fast

or leftovers;

therefore

, it can deteriorate consumers’ health as they use low-quality products.

over cooking at

also

has some advantages. On the one hand, nowadays,
