I never want to eat out but sometimes I have no time to cook for myself.In my country,most of the oil used in restaurants is drainage oil,a kind of illegal cooking oil made from waste and rubbish.
Every time I think of the process of the drainage oil and the food that I have eaten in restaurants I feel sick and want to vomit.However,the drainage oil is cheap so that millions of people work for it and make millions of money.Even the famous oil brand is used to sell drainage oil to citizens.What a tragedy!
As we will be likely to get cancer eating this kind of drainage oil.I can do nothing but to try to cook for myself.Do you have this kind of eating problems?

dear, i can know about your feelings as i have the same anxiety as yours. Nowadays i always do cooking at home and i feel quite comfortable about the eating at home, while sometimes eating out in restaurants make me feel quite oilty and i just eat little, this social phenomenon needs the government to deal with and change the living environment for people living in this country, i hope oneday this will not annoy us again.

Oh.Fast food is not what I prefer as a fact.Maybe it's because that fast food in my country are of low quality and high calories.Anyway,eat what you like and pay attention to health at the same time.Thanks for your answer.

We eat out on certain special occasions. Other than that not really. We don't really ask what they use to cook either lol. We have found that it's better not to ask then to ask and be totally disgusted when we like what we eat. Kind of like when the job my daughter's husband is waiting for to call, calls to give him a start date we'll go out for dinner and a movie as a family. We've been doing things like that a lot more now when we have the money to spare.

Hi,sizzle.Nice to know that you have a happy family.I also want my parents to watch a movie with us but they never accept it,saying that old people should not walk around.I wish they can be more active instead of staying at home all day.

The reason for food in restaurants with high price in your country must be that they are of high quality and healthy.I prefer to eat something healthy and expensive rather than something that may make me get a cancer.Anyway,take care of yourself.

yeah you right too much oil will getting cancer, even you cooked by yourself. In my house we habit that as we can not using oil to cooked because to avoid the cancer thing, it's including when we bought food somewhere. But if you have buy food outside dont forget with vegetables because it's good for your health, we can not controlled the oil, and how they used the oil for couple of time

No we do home cooked meals because it is healthier and affordable for us. On some occasions we do eat out especially the kids like to eat burgers and fried chicken in fast foods, but we do not eat out regularly.
It is better to cook food for yourself because you know what you are eating and the ingredients with it.

I don't like eating out too often because it is too hard to regulate the calories. Home meals are so much easier to manage. One doesn't always have to have a full course meal..quick simple things are often just as good and healtier..One of my fav is an omlette where I throw in vegies and cheese. Sometimes I microwave a baked potatoe and but fresh veggies and cheese on it..
For lunch if I am out and get too hungry I have been known to stop at a grocery store and just buy a container of yogart..and I pick up a plastic spoon at the Deli...
So many ways to save time & calories, eat healthy, and save money too

Hi,stary.I admire you so much.I also want to cook for myself despite that I'm not good at cooking at all.You're right.Cooking at home can help us control what we like to eat.Maybe it's time for me to focus on learning how to cook from my mum.Thanks for your answer.

Hi,
I don't like to eat out. but many times I have to outdoor for work and I have to eat unwillingly in the restaurants. I don't have any problem with oil. I always go to the reputed restaurants. But the food is very oily and I have soem problem is digestion. So I always prefer simple home made food. For a change we bring food from hotel.

Hi,
I know which country you are from,. Yeah, I never go out to eat, it's horrible to eat that food which cooked with illegal cooking oil. I'd rather cook at home , even it's tired and not tasty sometimes, but still, it's healthy.
Have a nice day, friend!

Hello,caopaopao.OK.It's a disaster to live in this kind of country full of illegal food.I can't agree with you more that it's healthy to eat at home even though it's not tasty.God!Save us! lol

we eat out at least once a week. I know it is not a good idea because restaurants are more expensive than fast food but husband likes fusion restaurants and shubo shabu.Iam learning how to cook Japanese and Korean dishes but my husband enjoys trying out different kinds of restaurants,he is a foodie.

You are really a caring wife for you husband.It's fun to cook at home with the person that we love.But the condition is that we can cook something delicious.I need to learn to cook like you.

No I don't eat out often unless with my sisters. Though we go to well established fast food chains or restaurants, we still were not sure of what kind of food they are serving, Thank God we are still alive. Yes, this can happen specially to small, street side food (we have a lot in the Philippines). The cheaper the food the scarier it could be.

actually when you know the fact eating outside does more harm than goodness, why don't you spend time to cook instead say not time. sorry I not understand what your job or situation your facing but I am sure time you can plan ahead and make use of it.
