7 BENEFITS OF EATING HOME MADE MEALS THAN EATING AT EATERIES.

1) FINANCIAL BENEFITS: Consuming home made meals is much economical than eating in restaurants. When we eat at restaurants, we tend to pay other bills alongside the meal. Other bills like, the lights, the service provided by the servants, water bill, packing space, the building e.t.c. Am not saying we should completely eradicate the attitude but I believe it should be controlled and reduced.

2) TIME SAVING: It's much faster to make a decent meal for one's self at home than rushing to a restaurant. There are so many Meals that can be made in less than 40mins, and if you choose a more complex meal, you can as well cook in bulk and freeze for later consumption.

4) THE LEVEL OF SANITATION: The level of sanitation in restaurants are doubtful especially in less developed countries. In other to be able to control what enters your mouth as in food, it's preferable to make your own meals at home.

5) AVOID ALLERGIES: This point is very beneficial for those who are allergic to some foods or ingredients. Thus when you are in control of your own kitchen, you can reduce the risk of an allergic reaction.

6) PORTION CONTROL: Nowadays, many of us are in control of our weights.
