Some people prefer to eat meals at restaurants, while others prefer to prepare and eat food in their own home. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

Most people do not like to cook, they are too busy to lose their time in this activity,but they do not notice all the advantages of it. In my personal opinion,I think that it is better to cook your own food and enjoy it in your own home. I feel this way for two reasons that I will explain in the following paragraphs. To begin with, preparing your own food is cheaper than having a meal in a restaurant. Restaurants usually have excessive costs because they have to obtain enough money to pay their employees and get profits. On the other hand, when people cook their own meals, they do not have to pay any extra costs, they only need to buy the ingredients that they need to prepare their food. For example, when I cook my own lunch I hardly ever spend more than 8 dollars but If I would have to go to a restaurant I should have to spend at least 15 dollars to get an economic dish. Secondly, meals cooked by ourselves are healthier than the food that you can get in a restaurant. When you cook you have the option to choose natural ingredients to prepare your own food, you have control over what you are eating. On the contrary, in a restaurant you cannot know if the ingredients that you are eating are organic or transgenic. For instance, when I was in high school, I went to a vegetarian restaurant. I thought that all the food that this restaurant offers was healthy, but I found out that it used transgenic vegetables in its dishes because they were less expensive than organic products. In conclusion, I strongly believe that preparing your own meals is the best option. I think that because when you cook your own food you can save some extra money and have control of what products you are using to prepare it.
