COMPARE AND CONTRAST LIFE BEFORE AND AFTER THE INVENTION FAST FOOD


Food is one of our basic needs. Without it, we will not survive as it gives us energy to do our daily activities. As years passed, people invented different types of food. One of the most distinct creations is fast food. Fast food is a processed food containing hazardous ingredients. But, people still loves it for different reasons. Since then, many horrible events related to our food happened and it worsens day by day. It made us think the good life before we created fast food. So, this essay is about the life before and after the invention of fast food.

To begin with, food before use ingredients that is free from chemicals. On the other hand, fast food uses tons of chemical substance mainly to prolong the life span and its tastes. That’s why, before the invention of fast food, our life are healthier than today. People hardly contract any diseases before than nowadays as we eat healthy and balance food before rather than fast food today. On top of that, in the past, we eat at specific time like breakfast, lunch and dinner. But, today, we eat fast food at any time. Thus, it destroys our good eating habit and patterns from before. Moreover, people in old days are more hardworking and proactive as they eat balance meal every day. In contrast, we today are becoming lazier as fast food fills our body with no nutrition. Furthermore, the sizes of people before are smaller comparing today. People today are bigger and not in a good state of health. This state produces people that are inactive and have difficulties in living their life comparing to normal people before.

But, despite all of that, there also lies similarities between the life before and after the invention of fast food. Foods are easy to obtain anywhere and anytime in the past and present. Foods are still cheap until today thus lessen our burden in money. We also had food delivery service before and it still continues until today which enable us to save our money on transportation.

In general, the life before and after the invention of fast food are very distinct. It is better if we eat like the old days for the sake of our health. But, it’s not like we can’t eat fast food. It is advice that we reduce our consumption on fast food.

Girls, you have so much too say in the 2nd paragraph but not in the third paragraph. The essay will be more balanced and organized when both body paragraphs have the about the same amount of words; points and supporting details.

Try to be critical in writing. Your essay is easy to read but it doesn't engage the readers so much.
