Ứng dụng Grammar vào Speaking – Unit 8: Food (Ngữ pháp: Countable and Uncountable Noun)

I would say that I’m not a picky eater. I enjoy many types of food. But if I have to choose, I would definitely go for Vietnamese traditional cuisine because it is all about the combination of fresh and flavorful ingredients. Also, Vietnamese dishes are easy to prepare and cook so I can make them from scratch at home. 

Like I have mentioned before, I’m not very fussy when it comes to food but there are some foods that put me off. Stinky foods like durians, stinky tofu and some seafood are not my favorite so I tend to stay away from them.

Yes, I love to cook. Honestly, I don’t think of myself as a good cook but I always try my best. I consider it one of my hobbies and I always help my mother in the kitchen on weekends. We find new recipes and try them out at home and it is a fun bonding experience for both of us.

I think that maintaining a healthy diet is essential for our health. Without good nutrition people are prone to diseases and other health problems. However, many people nowadays are not paying attention to what they eat everyday. A lot of people are eating too much processed food, especially children. I think we should eat more fruits and vegetables not only to improve our health but also to set examples for children.

I can’t speak for everyone but from the people I know, I think that Vietnamese people still prefer to eat at home instead of dining out, because home cooked food is usually healthier and more affordable for most people. If they do choose to eat out then food stalls and street vendors are often their first choice. Fancy restaurants are for special occasions like birthdays or anniversaries.
