In many countries, traditional foods are being replaced by fast food. This has a negative impact on families, individuals, and society. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

soon. I completely agree that it has several drawbacks to relationships among family members, friends, and communities. First of all, traditional
food
is healthier than fast
food
.
For example
, it contains numerous natural products which contain high amounts of vitamins and minerals.
However
, untraditional
food
can not be compared with the traditional one because has fewer or no natural products, but
instead
, it is rich in unhealthy compounds
such
as lipids, proteins, and free radicals which sometimes cause cancer in human beings. So , I prefer traditional
foods
not fast
foods
. Despite the above, traditional
foods
make a good relationship between family members and individuals in societies.
For instance
, if someone makes traditional
food
at home, he invites his friends to eat in his home and they meet each other which makes renew the relationships between friends and family members, and leads to make a good community.
In addition
, it increases the value of love in the heart of each individual. In conclusion, junk
food
has various side effects on human health
such
as causing cancer or other diseases.
Nevertheless
, traditional
foods
are healthier and produced from natural products in general. Because of
this
, I prefer traditional
foods
and disagree to replace them with fast
food
which is unhealthy.

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
