had a good eating habit in my country. When I was came to United States, I changed my eating habits so badly due to this busy life style. I used to eat my breakfast early morning. Now I'm missing my breakfast so many times. I used to eat very healthy food, such as Fresh vegetables and fruits. we have a little family farm in my country and my mother always cooked that fresh foods for me.I was a very picky eater, because I had so many food verities and my mother cook what ever I need. But now I don't care about that because I can't be a picky eater any more. Going to eat out is very rear in my country .My favorite foods are rice and curries. Usually I am trying to cook by my self but I don't have good skills for that.I usually cook very simple foods and It's make me happy and I believe It will be helpful for me to avoid junk food. Usually I am going to general food stores to buy food and, If I need to cook my country foods, I will go to Indian store and that is the only one place I have to buy my country foods. In summer times I usually go to Farmers market, because thy selling good and fresh vegetables and fruits.
In Sri Lanka, we have very Unique food culture and people have two different food behaviors, such as vegetarian and non vegetarian. We are always using lot of spices for foods. Some times species are taken as food too. Sri Lankan foods mostly based on rice and curries, because our main economy is Agriculture. people in Sri Lanka, drink many kind of tea and herbal drinks. For example so many people start their first meal as herbal drink or fresh tea.It makes fresh feelings and get more energy. They love to grow their own vegetable garden ,then use it as theirs daily food suppliers. We don't eat too much junk food like Americans do. Going to out side for eat is very rear and some time we go to out for party. My country people like to eat at least one meal with all family members. Usually we get together for dinner.For example, we take our dinner at 8.clock and every family members should be participate for the dinner. In That time for we discuss every problem we have and taking decision for all family. On the other hand ,In United we can take our meal any time without any family members.
"organic junk food is still junk food"(p4) by Marion Nestle. This quote means, organic doesn't mean its always good for your health, even though organic foods are processed too. For example, If you bought macaroni ,cheese or crackers from the Organic section and, try to compares those foods ingredients and calories to non organic food, then you can notice, that the same calories and fat you taking from organic foods. That means organics junk food is still junk food. I like this quote because this idea is very simple and its saying us to don't waste your money for buying so many junk foods and chose your organic food smartly.spend your money for buy healthy organic foods such as vegetables and fruits.
i agree with you, not every organic food is good for you. sometime some junk foods are better than organic food.
