HW 2 - Food - Initial Thoughts

3 Aspects Of Food

Time

-When i eat lunch everyday i have about 30 minutes to eat. Im a slow eater, so i usually get something easy and quick to eat (a bagel most of the time). A bagel takes no time to eat (20 minutes the longest) because its small. Im not so hungry at lunch but if i do get really hungry i get something bigger and more expensive (chinese food). Since i wouldnt have enough time to eat it normally i eat it quick (im hungry enough to eat it quick anyway)

Money

-For Breakfast i always get something small and plain (bacon egg and cheese on a bagel) which doesnt cost me a lot. My parents give me lunch money, and its enough to hold myself over since i dont get anything over 7 dollars. But sometimes i will get something a lot cheaper if i want to save up my money. For dinner i usually get something a lot more expensive because by the end of the day i'm the hungriest. If my parents don't feed me i'll get pizza or chinese food (i keep my food options limited on most week days)

Location

-In the morning i always eat breakfast in my living room because taking the time out of my morning to get a bacon egg and cheese takes too long. For lunch i eat at the plaza on 22nd and broadway because it's conveniently a block away from the school and is just nice in general. On weekdays i always eat dinner at home whether my parents cooked me dinner or i ordered something.

Why

-As mentioned, i prefer bacon egg and cheese on a bagel, pizza, and chinese food for my usual meals. For all of these i have a very similar reason. These are all foods i grew up eating. Not because i think they are that much better than other foods i eat sometimes (cereal, halal food, pasta) but because they are the cheapest and i have been eating these foods for almost as long as i could walk.
