Episode description
Yes, it surely is about food.
Gastronomy is the study of food and culture.
We all enjoy our meals if they are scrumptious and we eat them in a comfortable happy environment. As part of our culture, our mealtime should be a time when families have a talk with each other, have a good time with the guests, and educate little kids to have good habits and customs. It is a time when parents can provide the children affection as they persuade them to have a meal.
Aside from these salubrious activities to strengthen one's relationship with family and friends, eating healthy snacks is a good way of improving a diet that may lack or have excessive food energy and nutrients.
However, many people buy meals and snacks from vendors or eat-in bars, restaurants, or hotels; some students receive snacks or a meal at school. While eating out can be a special treat, eating outside the home too often can mean getting too many calories, fat, and salt and not enough fruits, vegetables, and essential nutrients. Unfortunately, we have been enticed by those fast-food services. The nutrient composition of food eaten away is often not of the same quality as food prepared at home.
Now, my challenge for you today is to deliver an impromptu speech that:
Encourage people to choose meals and snacks that provide a mixture of nutrients, especially if they regularly eat away from home.
Warn them not to eat too many fried street foods as these may contain unhealthy fats and increase the risk of overweight.
