HW 4 - Your Families' Foodway

     People in older generations didn't really care about what they had/were consuming at there time period.  But as time had went on, people started becoming curious about what they were eating.  And that is a study that continues into the world today.  My grandparents didn't care what they were eating when they were young, but as they got older, it started to affect them in ways such as diabetes and heart problems.  They use to eat a lot of sugary treats and fast foods.   Now in the younger generation such as me and my cousins like my age, care and watch what they eat, and think twice about what we eat most of the time
    
     In my house usually/most of the time, my mow gets the food and cooks the food, also she does the dishes, but sometimes, my does all those things too at different times of the day.  My mom usually does this for lunch and dinner, but my dad 95% of the time makes us breakfast, gets the food, and then washes the dishes.  When My dad was younger he also was eating like my grandparents, and now he is working out, and exercising trying to get more healthy and to lose his stomach.  I actually thought all healthy food was like salad and whole grain this/that.  But then there are pastas that are healthier than the original, there are cereals that are healthy, and there are drinks that are healthy also.  That changed my opinion on healthy foods, because I actually enjoy eating those foods most of the time
    
     In my fridge I mostly have healthy foods such as, salads, water, apple juice.  I have these things because my mom and dad are exercising to stay healthy so they cleared the whole fridge to get rid of all the junk food that they liked to not get tempted by all of that unhealthy stuff.  I don't mind these things in our fridge because there actually really good.  I think my mom sticks to exercising more than my dad because my mom actually does it everyday twice.  She'll actually park further from her job so she could get in a nice little walk before she goes to work.  My does it sometimes a week, mostly 3 times a week.  The only time my mom doesn't work out is when we go to church, if she is sick, if something has come up unexpectedly, or if she is sore from the work out before.
