FOOD INFORMATION

The food information comes from different places or persons. First of all, some people know so much about food and they have a wide knowledge about the food ingredients, its benefits for the body and the mind. Also, they know the elements that are healthier to us. For instance, I can name my parents who are very good cook, and of course, other relatives.
Secondly, the food information comes from the packages which cover the products. In these packages we can read the features of the product, its scientific ingredients, and how we can prepare it or use it in the moment to cook.

This kind of information about my food affects what I eat because depending of the ingredients I chose if the food is tasty and healthy to me. For example, if I read in the ingredients a high onion content I will not eat that food, or somebody tells me that the food comes with spicy parts I can not eat it either. Therefore, it’s very important to me to know the information about the food I like to eat.

  1. Carlos, In addition for looking for spice and onions, do you also pay attention to the nutritional content of the food? Organic standards? Do you avoid anything? How do the packaging standards in the U.S. compare with the information on packaged foods in Colombia?
