Reasons for Some of our Eating Habits
There are several reasons why many of us choose our
eating habits, and I will outline below some of these
reasons. Those of us who watch a lot of TV may attribute
advertisements to our choice of snacks. On the other hand,
the generation who grew up with fresh produce probably
favours fruits and vegetables as a result. There are,
however, some of us who, despite having access to fresh
fruit and veggies, still reach out to a salty snack late at
night; this choice may be due to our upbringing. As you can
see, these are some of the reasons behind some of our
eating habits.
