In their advertising, businesses nowadays usually emphasise that their products are new in some way. Why is this? Do you think it is a positive or negative development?

Recently,

due to

the popularity of

junk

food

, there are risks to traditional cuisines being replaced by fast

food

. I totally agree that it has various disadvantages for society and families.

Firstly

, Traditional foods are a reflection of a society’s history, these dishes are part of human culture and contribute to shaping their identity. There are many stories behind them. Replacing them with fast

food

results in a generation that does not know its culture or how to prepare its traditional

food

, which contributes in part to the extinction of its culture.

a result, the younger generation may grow up with limited knowledge about their cooking methods. The second reason why I believe

this

shift has a negative impact is that consuming more fast

food

affects family finances, especially for large families.

Moreover

,

junk

food

negatively impacts family dynamics, as family members no longer sit together at the same table during mealtime, which weakens communication and reduces cohesion among them. A study found that families frequently relying on fast

food

for meals tend to have unhealthy eating habits and limited access to healthy foods at home, which can negatively affect family interactions and

overall

well-being . In conclusion, replacing traditional dishes with

junk

food

negatively influences many aspects, whether in cultural value and existence, the healthy lifestyle of people, or society itself.
