People in Korea are Eating More Vegetables Young-Hee Kim from Korea
Then, they prepare suitable, healthy food for their children and their husband. I learned about the importance of eating vegetables, reading articles about health in Korean newspapers. Recently, a health program on TV in my country broadcast information about the healthy effects of eating vegetables. They showed the different blood density between someone who eats vegetables everyday—especially green and orange-colored vegetables—and someone who doesn't eat them for one month. They showed how the blood of people who eat vegetables every day is getting clean; that is, getting thinner. After that program was shown, almost everyone in Korea tried to eat vegetables everyday, and the vegetable sections in the grocery store were always crowded with people who wanted to buy vegetables. It was the so-called "vegetable syndrome." People continue to be concerned about this situation. Korean
people continue to be to be concerned about this
situation. They are interested in their health and
are easily influenced by information about it.
Several months ago, I got a call from my
mother-in-law. She had watched a TV program about
the effect of eating apples; it showed that apples
are good for your health. She was very concerned
because my husband doesn't like apples. She asked
me to grind apples and make him eat them. Return to: International Cooking and Eating Trends | Issue 22 | Home Page
