Could someone please correct my essay for TOEFL? Nowadays, food has become easier to prepare. Has this change improved the way people live? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Recently it has become much easier for us to access to cooked meals. We can easily find things including sandwiches, prepared lunch boxes, and salad to go at any supermarket or convenience stores. I believe this change has improved the quality of our lives in several ways. There are three main reasons to support my idea. First of all, buying pre-made food allows us to save more time. Since we don’t have to cook ourselves, we can do something else in the time, which are more valuable to do for us. We could study, work, and enjoy our hobbies, and they will lead to more fulfilling life. In my experience, thanks to cooked food, I am able to spend more time on learning English. It is very helpful to work with foreign coworkers at my office. I strongly feel that having time to study English makes my daily life more meaningful. Second, cooked food helps us to stay healthy. There are usually labels on the food, which show what ingredients and what nutrition they contain including calories. This helps us to calculate calories and lets us know what nutrition we lack of. In addition, if you have something you want to avoid to eat, you can just check the label before the purchase. For example, I always buy food without flower, and it indeed help me keep myself in shape. Finally, buying pre-made food saves your money. If you have to cook something from scratch, you need to buy all of the ingredients, condiment, and seasoning. Also it even need you to have a decent kitchen and pay electricity. It costs a lot in total. However if you buy something that is already ready to be had, you don’t have to worry about the additional expenses. For these three reasons, I think having an easier way to prepare food has improved our lives.
