(theme-5, 64) Let's talk about food

1. Do you cook ? If yes, what food do you cook the most often ?

After gratuating from high school, I liked fried rice. So I cooked it myself without my mother. It isn't difficult food, it's just a simple thing that ends when I add soy sauce or salt and stir-fry it properly with the final addition of fried eggs. The taste became fantastic. I think it was delicious because salt and oil were added. But the fried rice from the past can't be erased from my memory

 

2. How often do you eat with your family ?

My wife likes shabu, so our family sometimes eats it. By the way, Last sunday, our family went to haesitang restaurant near my house as a preliminary survey to serve my relatives. I've eaten haesitang servaral times before, but it has various ingredients such as chicken, octopus, waterparsley, abalone. It's a perfect health food

 

3. Do you like to have breakfast every morning ? why or why not ?

I hardly eat breakfast, probably when I went to samsung company. Lee kunhee's 7-4 system was implemented, so I stop eating breakfast. According to some expert, eating breakfast helps strengthen concentration. You also have to eat breakfast to eat lunch properly and not to eat too much in the evening

 

4. Do you like to eat some desserts after meals ?

In my generation, it was not easy to live in, so there was no concept of dessert. But theses days if we eat korean traditional food, they give us sikhye, sujeonggwa or plum. Dessert cafes are popular among young people. There are many kinds of bread, mainly cakes. There are also ice cream and fruit kinds of drink in dessert. The concept of dessert is the food culture imported from the west

 

5. Do you like to try new food and drink ?

I'm quite conservative when it comes to taste. I went to Beijing, China 10 years ago. Four major chinese dishes were served there, but I couldn't eat them because I didn't like them. I couldn't adjust to the strong spice. I guess I can't get out of my mother's taste

 

6. Are you concerned about your daily calorie intake when choosing something to eat ?

I don't worry about my calorie intake. Instead, I pay attention to whether it's healthy or not. Bad food is mainly processed food and contains  a lot of salt, sugar, fat. Intake is associated with weight and its contents indicate health conditions such  as colestrole

 

7. Are there any foods that you wouldn't eat as a child that you eat now ?

I have no food now that I couldn't eat when young. These days, I just like food more that I didn't like that much in the past. They were foods that my parents' generation liked. Such things are soft, sweet and local because of bad teeth. I guess I am getting similar to my previous generation as I get older

 

8. Is there any food that you really dislike eating ?

The food I can't eat is fermented skate. And I really hate bad food. However, food that is not tasty is food that is low in sugar, salt and fat. I always wonder if I should live a healthy life or enjoy my mouth

 

9. If you are living abroad, what is the food that you miss the most from home ?

If I live abroad, I'll probably think of kimchi and look for it. Kimchi is a fermented food consisting mainly of cabbage, salt and salted fish. Kimchi is a winter food that overcomes the winter. The reason why I think of Kimchi is its unique fermented taste. Additionally I miss the taste of my mother's hands

 

10. Do you read the nutritional information on the food you buy ?

I rarely read nutritional information about food. I am interested in health these days, so I try to read it. However, it's not easy to understand nutritional information because it is an area that I don't usually know well. According to nutritionists it's important to eat carbohydrates, protein, and fat evenly
