Now I´d like to tell you something about eating habits. In past, for many years people were limited in what they could eat. During the war and after it was difficult to produce and trade food. Now you can just go to the supermarket and choose whatever you want, or go to restaurant and order your favourite meal. In the past families usually met at a big table every evening and had a dinner together. Now it´s nothing weird to have a dinner on our own in a living room while watching TV. Influence of TV in eating habits is enormous – people eat unhealthy food bought in supermarket in a box, which they just put into the microwave oven and then eat it on a sofa in front of TV just for not missing their favourite programme. Many people do not care about what they eat; they care just about the speed of preparing. That´s why the role of fast-foods grows so much. In the past there wasn´t anything like McDonalds or KFC, people didn´t eat so many junky food and didn´t drink fizzy drinks like Coca-Cola. Now many people can´t imagine their life without a hamburgers or chips from fast-food.
