Well, before watching Food Inc. and Super sized Me, I actually never mind eating as long as it tastes good. In fact, I'm always up to try eating new things because life is so short; might as well try every food before you leave this world. I love to eat--all except bugs, I can never bring myself eating a water cockroach. I can eat silk worms but never in my life a water cockroach--no matter how my mother says," It's delicious, you don't no what you're missing." No thank you mother, I am perfectly fine with eating shrimps. Honestly, when freshly cooked food is serve in front of me--the question, "Where did this food came from?" is the least thing in my mind.
From snacks such as rice krispies treats to meals like beef tendon noodles. It all usually depends on my current situation, for example, if I was hungry in the morning as soon as I got up, then I'll probably be able to eat three bowls of fruity cheerios. Occasionally my grandmother would make something warm for me, like oatmeal with some cinnamon sprinkles. So, I prefer my meals warm when the weather gets colder, and vise versa when the season is warmer. I usually make sure that I have a large breakfast because it's the most important meal of the day--so I make sure that I'm full and ready to start the day.
However, the situation would be different if I was hungry at lunch time, and I'm in school. Since I commute everyday I don't want to spend money on a whole week of fast food. So, I usually bring a piece of bun along with a few snacks like a cookie or energy bars. If I am still hungry usually one milkshake from Jonny Rockets can make me full for the rest of the day. Those milkshakes can be very filling...
Last but not least, if I was hungry near dinner time--I'll usually try to drink water or chew some gum. No way I'm spoiling my dinner, besides my grandmother took her time to make the food. So, at dinner I'm always the first person to go after the meat. However, since everything--and I do mean, everything, my grandmother makes tastes so good. Luckily since I love to eat everything, I consume both meat and vegetables throughout the whole meal.
Meals are important and everyone should have three meals a day. I think as long as you eat enough to make yourself full and keep your body moving after each meal. When I mean full, I don't meant stuff so many food into your stomach till you're bloated. Digest your food slowly, take your time to chew; this will give time for your stomach to digest. Most importantly, no midnight snacks or any food after 6 PM since a person is less active as the day ends. All in all, I may not always question where my food came from, but right now I'm getting a bit nauseous around meat.
