 * Modern food sold in the supermarket are no more than a cocktail of chemicals** by noor hashiqen hashim

This is just a short essay regarding our task to give our opinion on the topic "Modern food sold in the supermarket are no more than a cocktail of chemicals". However, this is not my opinion but it is my mother's opinion. i asked her, do you agree or disagree of the statement and i'm not surprise to hear that she strongly agree with the statement. she said that all of the food out there are full with chemicals inside them. the first thing that comes out from her mouth is preservatives. nobody can't deny that most of our food nowadays are all blend with preservatives, artificial coloring and even artificial flavor. the most common preservatives, sodium benzoate is in our daily food products. for example, in soy sauce,salad dressing, and also in fruit drinks! that is why my mother said we're eating and consuming chemicals each day of our life! furthermore, our modern lifestyle nowadays make us fall deep in the cocktail of chemicals. all those prepared food, frozen food and fast food that make our life easier, safe our time to cook delicious food actually supplies us with tonne of chemicals used to preserve the food, gives creamy and thick texture and splendid colour for the food make our eyes closed and just let our taste buds feel the richness of chemicals in the food. wait! i'm a food technology student, i should disagree with my mother and the statement. this is because, without all those chemicals our food will not stand longer and will easily spoiled within few days. in fact, we will not be able to enjoy delicious and colourful foods that will make our appetite to burst. besides that, without the chemicals, some of the food product will not be able to be in its form with chemicals in it. for example, food that contains stabilizer and emulsifier. naturally, without emulsifier, water and oil will not mix. will you eat mayonnaise with water and oil separated into two layers? or perhaps you like to have margarine with water droplets on you toast? this is just a very short essay and brief explanation for each example. so, i would like to say that the chemicals in food have their own roles and benefits. but as usual we will always find the disadvantage rather than looking at the advantages side of it. that's all, thank you. =)
