Independent Essay

In today’s modern world with incredible technological advances,

people can prepare their own food easier than in the past. Some
people still prefer eat in restaurants, although, more and more
people are preferring stay at home and cooking their own food. In
my opinion, I prefer prepare and eat food in my home, I think this
way because a couple of reasons, and I will explore in the
following essay.

First, when people prepare their own food, they know exactly
what they are eating. The food prepared in our homes is healthy,
therefore, it increases the life expectancy because of the
decrease of diseases, especially in relation to the heart. Apart
from, learn to cook is pretty fun, and the food prepared by
ourselves is much tastier. For example, recently I try to cook
rice, so I read some recipes and after some trials I was doing
perfectly.

Secondly, cooking our food is cheaper than eating at restaurants.

Nowadays it is lacking money for the majority of people in the
world, due to the fact of the economic crisis that surrounds us,
the people go exclusively to restaurants in special moments like
birthdays, graduation and so on. Furthermore, it is pretty
gratifying when someone likes your food. I would like to start to
cook earlier. Today I keep learning and cooking more and more.

Last but not least, it is just really helpful to be able to cook for
yourself. Who knows what will happen in years and maybe you
will have no choice but to cook yourself some food that will be
edible. Even though cooking might seem boring for many people
it is still a necessary skill in everyone’s life.

In conclusion, I believe that preparing food by yourself is superior

to eating at restaurants, cafes, or food trucks. Even though food
from these places, may seem better, advantages listed in the
essay outweigh the benefits of eating from a restaurant or a
café.
