In the past , people ate local food in season.Nowadays people buy a variety of food from all over the world.Do the advantages outweight the disadvantages?

In the past, people had to eat only indigenous foods.

However

, people are purchasing a wide range of

food

items throughout the world, and

this

trend can damage a country's biodiversity and economy. The main reasons for the abundance of

food

are the advancement of

food

preservation technology and the improvement of logistics, and

as a result

, consumers can taste

food

from various

food

cultures.Traditional culture is bound with

food

; people can try many foods in their own country

instead

of going abroad.

In addition

, some imported foods may have a higher nutritional value than local ones. Dates,

for example

, are an imported fruit in Sri Lanka that contains many vitamins and energy, both of which patients require in order to recover quickly.

On the other hand

, to import

commodities,

currency should be spent,

although

imported

food

is not essential. Governments spend a huge amount of foreign funds

instead

of purchasing medicine and other necessities.

Furthermore

, local

food

may be lost as public attention wanes.

For example

, native oranges were popular in Sri Lanka because they were used not only as drinks but

also

as natural remedies;

however

, with the introduction of foreign oranges, they became less popular.I believe these disadvantages can damage a country's ecosystem and economy. To summarize, while consumers can eat

food

from all over the world, imported

food

can harm the system's and economy's balance.

As a result

, I believe that the disadvantages of

food

outweigh any potential benefits.
