Today, with the numerousadvances in related fields of technology, most if not all, of these problems arejust a memory of the past. Many claim, in particular, that the foods we consumetoday are of a much higher quality, thereby making them healthier to eat. But isthis certainly the case? I don’t think so.

The last time I checked, there were lots of fast food chains sprawling inour cities and even in some suburban areas. In these places are common sights ofobese children and other unhealthy-looking consumers. It does not stop here. Thesituation gets worse. Remember the time that the price of staple food like ricewas sky-high because of limited supply? Well, that’s not the case now.

Thus, it is up to us toeffectively filter what goes into our mouths lest以免 we suffer from unhealthyfoods’ effects.
