What’s Your Eating Lifestyle, Fast Food vs Slow Food?
Posted By: vie on October 9, 2009 at 2:14 am
In this fast-paced world, it is undeniable that people will have less time to cook and often resort to fast food over slow food. Let’s take a look what is fast food and slow food.
Slow Food comes from the nature and rich in nutrition. The food will take time in preparation and cooking. It often refers to home-made meals.
Fast Food comes from processed food, manufactured by the industry. The manufacturing process often destroys the nutrition of the food. In addition, the food has high in fats, sugar and salt and may contain preservatives and additives. The fast food comes in dry or frozen form packed in disposable packaging. The processed food is then distributed to supermarket or fast-food restaurants. The fast food doesn’t need preparation and is quick-cooking.
When we eat slow food, we often share the meals together in a family or a group of people. Thus, we don’t eat them in a hurry. Slow eating is good for digestion.
Contrary to slow food, fast food restaurants serve the food quickly. People don’t have to wait long for the meals. You can have them for take-away as well. People find the fast food tastier and people tend to overeat with the supersize value package.
There is a growing market of processed food or instant food which eliminates food preparation. We are not talking about sausages, burgers or frozen fried chicken but also dry instant noodles. When it comes to food resources, moms can’t avoid instant food or fast food. But, we shall eat this food sparingly and eat more fresh healthy food. When you eat at the restaurant, choose the one that serves slow food instead of fast food restaurant.
I like to share free cooking resources for moms. Please download free cooking e-book “Copycat Recipes“, on how to cook like a world class chef.

Hello Viviana,
I’m glad too meeting you via bloggosphere. Your blog has been added to my list (Supporter or Blogger Friends) and you can see your name at Supporter link bar on the top of my Blog.
Happy Blogging and have nice day.
I’m a slow food cook. I ate fast food for so many years, and now as a wife and mom, I have learned that you can only eat fast food for so long before it catches up with your body. I teach my son how to cook from wholesome foods fresh from the garden or the local farmers market.
I’ve actually just bought a slow cooker as slow food is definitely the way to go. Try doing a lamb stew in a slow cooker, you just chuck it all in the morning and then when you get back from work it’s ready to eat. It’s like fast food because it’s ready straight away but slow food because it’s healthy and tasty. mmmm
