Instant food - A convenience at a Cost

Modern life style is all about easing everything around you.
Technology has covered every aspects of our life. Talk about work or leisure.
Even food thats on your plate is a product of the modern technology.

But all these come for a cost. The additives and the preservatives added to these product to keep up its shelf-life until it reaches your table.
Studies show that, Some modern synthetic preservatives have become controversial because they have been shown to cause respiratory or other health problems. Some studies point to synthetic preservatives and artificial coloring agents aggravating ADD & ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactive Disorder) symptoms in those affected.

But yet, instant foods are most popular both in household and commercial kitchens.
Products made from scratch are actually cheaper and most are better tasting.
