Eat healthy food

导读：在如今的“吃货”时代，随处可见琳琅满目的食品，我们往往会因为自己的喜好选择吃一些父母眼中的“垃圾食品”。那么，我们该如何选择既美味又健康的安全食品呢，如何让我们的“吃”成为一种健康的享受呢？答案就在此文中。

When different kinds of food are around us today， we usually eat what we like， which is always the “junk food” in our parents’ eyes. Our parents always wish us to eat healthy food. It’s an age of eating， but how to choose the food that is both healthy and delicious？ Here are several tips for you.

Make your own food

If you make yourself busy in planning meals， going shopping， and preparing food， you will become interested in the process and more likely to eat. Even though you are too young to make food lists， it’s an excellent way to get interested in healthy cooking and eating.

Go to the source

Do you know where your food comes from？ Ask your parents or teachers to take you to a local farmer’s market （or to the farm itself） and meet the people who grow the food. Picking berries on the farm can help have a lifelong love of good eating and environmental habit. Visiting a farm can help you learn where the milk comes from （and why we should care about what goes in it）. Planting tomatoes and melons in the garden may let us try the fruits of our work.

Drink to that

Remember not to just eat some fruits and vegetables a day， you can also drink them. Mixed fruit drinks like watermelon and mango lassi can be a fun way to enjoy new fruits.
