My dear friend Rahul,
I heard that you are sick. You are suffering from stomach

pain. I know you do not like home made food. You always like
ready made and packed food sold in the market. My teacher
says that these foods are not good for our health. These junk
foods are not fresh like homemade food. They are stack and
unhygenic.

packed foods are very colourful and
beautiful to look at. Many colours
are used to make the foods look
beautiful. But, you know Rahul, these
colours are harmful for our health.
These foods make us unhealthy and
sick. If we become sick, we cannot
go to school. Then we will not get good marks in the exam.

Rahul, my family and I always eat homemade food.
My mother prepares rice, dal, bread, and vegetables for
our morning and evening meals. They are fresh, clean and
properly cooked. These foods give us energy and vitamins.
Our body needs energy and vitamins to work, to grow and
to be strong.

My father always brings fruits from the market. He says
we must eat fruits to be healthy. We should eat fruits and
fruit juice when we are sick. Fruits are easy to digest. My
grandmother makes delicious curd (dahi). I like curd very
much. She also gives me milk to drink in the morning and
evening.

I take bread, cooked vegetables, rice pudding, beaten
rice, roasted corn and soyabean and fruits at my tif!n on
