Improved with the structure


Many people think that fast food has a lot of advantages. However, I
believe that fast food has a lot of disadvantages. And in this essay, I
will discuss why homemade food can be better.
In my opinion, fast food is only good when you are in a hurry because
it can save time. Although fast food is bad for your health if you eat too
much. It has a lot of bad products. So, I prefer homemade food. If you
make your own food at home, you can use fresh products and it is
usually cheaper.
Moreover, fast food is made in bad conditions where many people do
not wash their hands when they make it. I cannot trust that kind of food
makers. People should be careful when they buy food in the street.
In conclusion, I think people should not eat too much junk food,
instead they can make food at home. (154 words)
