Fresh food or tinned food?
When you shop for food, you can buy fresh food or
tinned food. Which is better? I think fresh food tastes
better. Fresh food is good for you. It does not have any
extra salt or sugar. You know just what you are eating.
But you have to wash it first because sometimes it is a
bit dirty.
There are some positive and negative things about
tinned foods, too. In my opinion, tinned food is more
convenient because it lasts longer than fresh food.
Also, with tinned food you can always have fruit and
vegetables – even in winter. But tinned food usually has
extra salt or sugar and I believe this is bad for you.
Also, tinned foods make more rubbish because you have
to throw the tins away.
I think fresh foods are better than tinned foods.
