Rice Cake

 I usually eat meals regularly, at 6 AM, 12:30 and 7 PM. And I hardly eat snacks, especially potato chips. But I like Japanese snacks (dango, senbei, daihuku, manjuu etc), so when I tired, I eat these with a cup of hot green tea. It makes me comfortable.

  I hardly eat a box lunch which is sold at convenience store or supermarket because I don’t like to eat it. In addition, I hardly eat instant noodles. Instead, I cook for myself every day. Why? First, usually it has bad nutrition balance. A ratio of meat is too big, or there is little vegetable in the lunch box…. And it contains some food additives. These may be harmful for body. Now I live alone, so I have to take care of my health. Therefore, eating habit is one of the most important things for me. Second, finally its package becomes rubbish. If I eat it every day, the amount of rubbish must be vast. Usually these packages are made from petroleum, so (may be a bit much) it is harmful for environment to eat it. It is very “MOTTAINAI” thing. In contrast, cooking at home has less quantity of rubbish than buying box lunch. Third, cooking is interesting. I can season my favorite taste, and I can challenge new dishes every day. While I get on a train to come home, I sometimes think about a menu of the dinner. Although I sometimes feel that cooking is bother, but sometimes I’m absorbed in cooking, too. Cooking is really wonderful and interesting thing.
