7.27Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Advertising is the most important cause of unhealthy eating habits.
Faced with the viewpoint that advertising is more essential than any other determinants, some people make the view that some food on the advertisement looks so delicious which can easily catch consumers' eyes. From my perspective, a large amount of other aspects should be taken on the table, such as pressure in daily life, and the economic development.
To begin with, worker-class in big cities, especially in metropolis, have more pressure than people in the town. Some surveys on newspapers documented that almost eighty percent of workers have unhealthy eating habits. A vast majority of them prefer to eat fast food rather than some nutritious supper by the reason that, the reporter said, they cannot squeeze much time on eating from the tough work, while eating fast food is an appropriate way for them. Day by day, the physically detrimental habit has been fostered. Even though on weekends, most workers are customary to eating unhealthy food.
Furthermore, as the economy develops, the number of delicate food in diverse type which faced to modern people is on the rise. Most children, including myself, have more interest to eat fried food, so called junk food. Although they are delicious, eating too much can cause negative effect on health. As for vegetable, fruits such organic food are being ignored. Back to the mid of last century, most people in China were always in hunger and poverty, but few people have unhealthy habits. How it happened? The answer is evitable, food in that time was not polluted. More importantly, people had less money in the past than in today; therefore as long as the food they can afford, they would catch it. In other words, they got more different nutrition than us.
Admittedly, advertising plays an important role in people's bad eating habit. For example, last week, my parents didn't decide to eat in the restaurant. But when they saw the big range of discount in one restaurant which is revealed by a newspaper, they determined to eat. However, to their disappointment, most food in discount were not fresh, even some was boiled twice. Undeniably they were so regret being attracted by the advertisement.
In conclusion, although advertising can cause people's unhealthy eating habits, it is not the only reason. In my opinion, most bad habits are cultivated by us. Since we cannot control our mouth, we gradually have the unhealthy habits; since we cannot resist the lure of feast, a lot of illness happens. Therefore, I don't think advertising is the most significant cause of unhealthy habits. |
