Answer:
Three factors that affect my daily food choices include:
1. Taste
2. Length of time for preparation
3. Method of preparation.
Explanation:
When making choices for food, I tend to take several factors into consideration. Some of these factors include;
1. The taste of the food: If the food tastes good and is not too spicy I am more inclined to choose such food.
2. Length of time for preparation: Especially on stressful days, I tend to consider the length of time required to prepare a healthy meal. If it takes so much time I am more inclined to eat fast food which is not a good choice.
- To change this negative outcome, I hope to plan my affairs for the day and prepare healthy meals beforehand, which could be stored in the refrigerator and reheated when I need it.
3. Method of Preparation: Some foods require paying attention to details. For example, food that uses up, a lot of vegetables would require thorough washing to prevent particles in the food. Busy days also get me exhausted with no strength to pay attention to these protocols.
- To turn this around, I hope to employ the help of a family member to make the process easier.
- I also hope to process most of my ingredients and keep them ready for use so that I would not have to do a lot of processing while cooking.
