Many processed foods and ready-made meals contain preservatives and chemicals. What are the advantages to this? Do you think that advantages outweigh the disadvantage?

Convenient and processed foods are widely enjoyed in the modern era.Yet there remain arguments as to whether these types of meals are beneficial as they comprise preservatives and chemicals.

Although

there are some valid arguments against using these foods, I believe the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. It is an indisputable fact that there are several advantages to consuming pre-cooked food. First of all, the majority of people, nowadays, have tight schedules and spend most of their

time

working and commuting, and, in turn, are not able to allocate adequate

time

to purchasing the ingredients and cooking meals as they would do in earlier times,thereby ready-made meals can play a crucial role in saving

time

.

Furthermore

, these foods are, at times, more affordable compared with the same that one wants to cook in their kitchen thanks to mass-producing. A frozen pizza or a half-cooked Noodle,

for instance

, can be bought at a lower price,

while

little

time

and effort needed to be fully prepared. Another major benefit can be, preservatives and chemicals play a pivotal role in preventing food

such

as meat,fruit and vegetables from becoming spoiled and turning to waste products. As

such

, they can be considered highly beneficial both to preserving the environment and their economic impacts. The excessive usage of these additives,

however

, can be disadvantageous in the long run. One drawback may be their adverse effects on one's health. Manufacturers use chemical

to postpone

the spoiling date of a product in order to earn profit. Given the status quo, people's health might be overlooked as it is not the priority of producers.

However

argument compelling, since food firms are continually being observed and their products are examined on a regular basis by governments and other regulators.
