/advertisingis the main cause of unhealthy eating habits? Theissue that whether advertising is the main cause of unhealthy eating habits hasrecently gained high popularity. PersonallyI consider that although advertising do present customers some invitingbut inaccurate information for the purpose of high margin, there shows thatseveral other more significant factors also mislead customers to purchase unhealthy food and result in unhealthy eatinghabits among people. For instance, high price of the healthy foods and mountingpace of the modern life. Tobegin with, healthy foods, such as fresh fruits, Chinese noodles cooked at homeand vegetables grown in uncontaminated farms, are usually sell at a higherprice than unhealthy foods. For example, when dropping in a supermarket, we cannotice that the same sort of vegetables there are divided into several rankswith different price, of which the healthier fresh vegetables are always moreexpensive than others. In order to save money, a considerable amount of peoplewill perhaps buy the cheaper but unhealthy vegetables, which usually grown withhormones. Likewise, people tend to buy otherrelatively unhealthy foods so as to save money. Additionally,owing to the fierce competition, people today are force to study and workharder. Consequently, we have little time tospend on preparing foods at home, although it is universally accepted that foods made at home are usually healthier and cleaner thanthat of restaurants, which can serve us themeals in a short time. Take myself for example, I usually come to 711and buy myself breakfast and lunch since it is pretty convenient despite the fact that the food I bought may not be ashealthy as homemade. Thus the high paceof modern life definitely shoulders part of responsibility of the unhealthyeating habits’ emerging Admittedly, we cannot deny that some fast-food companies such as KFCuse some improper strategies to attract customers, including inviting superstarsto recommend their products and exaggerating the nutrient content in theirproducts. But the companies that produce healthy non-hormone food also castadvertisement and invite superstars. Therefore,advertising cannot be regarded as the major cause of people’s unhealthy eatinghabits. Toconclusion, nowadays people are developing an unhealthy eating habits stems not only fromadvertising but also from high price of healthy food and high pace of modernlife. De facto, the latter two factors often dominant. HenceI do not perceive advertising as the chief cause of unhealthy eating habits
