We decide what we are about to eat and how it will affect our bodies. We can choose between eating fresh food or canned food, and also we can compare the differences between fresh food and canned food. The three main differences are flavor, health benefits, and cost. The most notable difference between these two kinds of foods is the flavor. Fresh foods have great flavor and taste way better than canned food, this because fresh foods keep all their natural conditions and its aroma. In contrast, canned foods lack a lot of its flavor characteristics because there are some other chemical products added to the natural foods. For instance, the producers used to add more sugar to a canned of salad fruit to make the product sweet instead of leaving its natural sweetness. Canned food does not preserve the food flavor due to the fact that the preservation process uses many chemicals and high boiling temperature causing the flavor to fade and looses almost all the natural flavor. Fresh food has natural essence and aroma that makes you taste the savor of the food, in addition gives more flavor to your receipts. So if we want to eat a tasty, and fresh food, we have to eat non-proceed food or canned food. Comparing both types of foods we notice another difference.

Even thought, fresh foods begin losing vitamins as soon as they get picked, they are healthier than canned food for the only reason that fresh food does not contain semi toxic preservatives. In fact, fresh foods provide more nutrients and vitamins which make to be healthier than canned food. Yet another difference between these two types of foods is the cost. Canned foods are much cheaper than fresh foods. Fresh food cost more because they are more sensitive at the time of harvest, and they can get smashed easily. Besides, fresh food last lest than canned food so the markets make the cost higher for the process that takes them to harvest fresh food. Canned food is really cheap, it contains chemicals and other preservatives that make the amount to increase and produce large quantity at low prices. Even though, the price of canned food is way cheap is better to always consume fresh foods. As we can see it comes down to a personal choice, based on the time each person has, the money and the importance he/she gives to his/her nutrition and health. Therefore it is important that you consider your possibilities and choose the best type of foods for your convenience and lifestyle. Fresh foods can bring you a healthy body, better taste food and better lifestyle or canned food brings you easy life, save you money, but not good taste.
