More and more people are becoming seriously overweight.

Some people suggest that

the solution to this problem is to increase the price of fattening foods. To what extent
do you agree or disagree?
Opinions are divided as to whether the rise of food containing high fat price would put
people off from consuming it daily. While this can change the people’s eating habit, I
also believe that such solution can merely put a small range of people off from
consuming fatty food.
On the one hand, when the cost for purchasing food containing high fat, the citizens
are more likely to head for better and healthier diet. This is because people are inclined
to buy cheaper products and as they find high fat food unaffordable. Resultingly, the
healthier food which are normally ignored now comes to the consumers’ attention due
to being less pricy in comparison to greasy food.
On the other hand, it is irrefutable that escalating cost of fat food does not thoroughly
reduce the number of people who crave for it. Othewise, there are still many eaters
whose diet consist mostly of high-cholesterol food. The explaination to this is because
the high cost of such type of meal focus solely on people with normal income. However,
buyers who have better income can still keep on with their unhealthy eating habit.
In conclusion, although it is agreeable that the proportion of fat in everybody’s meal
can be greatly cut down thanks to growing food cost, the range of diners influenced is
still a limit.
