However, the generations Y nowadays are more prefer and tend to eat fast food like MacDonald's instead of Cassava even though it consist lots of benefits. The most evident advantage of fast food is that it saves time. In today's fast-paced life, there is nothing better than getting a ready meal. No matter how much the chefs praise the benefits of fresh food, at the end of a hardworking, tiring and hectic day, when one returns home all tired and hungry, a burger like Double Cheeseburger and Spicy Chicken McDeluxe or a pizza can be godsend. Besides that, the time an individual has to spend in the kitchen, cooking a meal also requires one to make a trip to the supermarket to buy the ingredients for the dish . Then there is the added effort and time consumed in washing and peeling the vegetables. Therefore, all this makes eating fast food score more preferably over cooking a meal for busy and hectic life style generations.
But, bear in mind this kind of food consists of its own drawback as usually, fast food is higher in soy, fat, sugar, oil, fried meat, salt, cheese, mayonnaise and obviously extra calories.The greatest disadvantages of fast food is the adverse effect that it has on one's health. It is a fact that fast food is more unhealthy than home-cooked meals, as it contains higher amounts of unwanted nutrients like salt, fat and various types of additives or artificial chemicals. Fast food being rich in salt, adversely affects the heart and the overall health of an individual. Such type of food is a crucial contributor and the main trigger to the obesity problem in the Malaysia population. According to Malaysian Ministry of Health, Datuk Liow Tiong Lai stated that, 38% of child populations are facing the overweight problem that will lead to obesity problem at last. Obesity is on the rise, and a direct link is being cited between fast food and obesity in children.
All in all, the Generations X versus Generations Y foods are obviously differ. But, the generations X foods totally are more nutrients and good for our health compared to other.
