Nowadays,more people would rather purchase food than cook at home.What are the advantages and disadvantages of this trend? Give ideas about which is better way according to you and why?

Come along with the modern world, 24-hour life becomes shorter than ever. To save up some

time

to spend with those ones we love, more and more people choose to cut off cooking

time

and buy prepared

food

for themselves.

This

idea could be good and bad at the same

is very convenient. For busy people who can stay up to 10 hours in their offices, convenience stores with different options like sandwiches, fried rice, even salad is always an ideal choice. It takes less than 5 minutes to be ready to eat, so they can have some extra

time

to rest.

For example

like 7Eleven, its stores change the

and go shower. By that, I save up one hour every

for cooking, it tastes good and is healthier than a pizza. In a nutshell, I would say that good

food

makes your life better. So no matter how busy we are, we should find a way to cook nice
