Food
is one of the most crucial needs of a human being. Some people choose to go out and eat in a restaurant,
in contrast
, others would prefer to prepare and consume their
food
at their
home
. Personally, I prefer homemade recipes for the fact that they are healthier, more delicious and less expensive than those eaten in
restaurants
. Homemade
food
is far healthier than ready
food
for many reasons.
First
, while cooking at
home
, who wants to cook for the family members, chooses all the ingredients with a lot of care, they must be fresh and of good quality.
Besides
, the ingredients and the utensils used are clean.
In contrast
, in most
restaurants
, and because of the big quantity of prepared
food
, they cannot take care of all the materials and the utensils to be always cleaned. And,
for example
, in
restaurants
, the oil used in the fryers is used many times so that it becomes unhealthy and sometimes toxic, while at
home
, the oil is changed frequently. All these differences affect the
food
taste and
consequently
, homemade
food
is more delicious.
Besides
this
, cooking at
home
is less expensive than buying ready-made
food
or eating in
restaurants
. For the same price, a bigger quantity of
food
is prepared at
home
. Especially for big families, they can prepare
food
for all family members at the cost of only half the quantity in the restaurant. In
restaurants
, you have to pay not only the price of
food
but
also
the cost of sitting in the place and the service you are receiving.
That is
why you must pay much more in the restaurant than in your
home
in order to eat the same plate.
As a result
, it is unaffordable to always eat in
restaurants
. In conclusion, in spite of the desire of eating in
restaurants
on some occasions,
such
as birthdays, I usually prefer homemade
food
for the fact that it is healthier and more affordable. I advise everyone to try cooking at
home
. It is a great pleasure for me.
