Benefits of Eating at Home vs. Restaurants

Eating out can be a very pleasurable experience. Having dinner with a friend, eating a romantic meal while on a date or celebrating some special event with a party at a restaurant are all things we enjoy doing.

Even so, there are few people who eat out all the time and eating at home has many points in its favor. It is cheaper to eat at home. It is healthier to eat at home and it is usually much more comfortable.

Cheaper and Healthier

Firstly, eating at home is much less expensive than eating in a restaurant. Obviously, when we eat at home we do the preparation, cooking and serving of the food ourselves and, therefore, do not need to pay the labor costs of cook, waiter and other restaurant staff.

Secondly, eating at home is much better for our health and general well being than dining outside. At home, when cooking for ourselves, we can ensure that what goes into our meals is not bad for us.

Comfort of Home

Finally, eating at home is much more comfortable than having dinner or lunch in a public place.

In conclusion, it is my opinion that for reasons of comfort, cost and health, eating at home is preferable to eating in a restaurant or at a food stand.

Cooking Should Be a Mandatory Subject in Schools

In school, children learn many subjects that serve for their intellectual development. There are all kinds, but sometimes, we forget that they have to study really useful everyday things that can help them perform basic tasks.

Benefits of Learning to Cook

First of all, I must say that a cooking subject can be good for teaching you how to cook healthy things and for its psychomotor development.

Secondly, it can be very useful to learn to differentiate which foods are good and bad for your health and how to mix them to make a good plate of food.

Finally, I consider that these types of activities help them to perform better at home with their homework and their parents can also learn from them.

In conclusion, studying cooking at school helps their mental, cognitive and motor development, as well as teaching them something so basic in life.
