Convenience food is commercially
prepared food designed for ease of
consumption.
Bread, cheese, salted foods have been
sold for long years.
 Other kinds were developed with
improvements in food technology.
Convenience foods and fast foods are similar,
because the development of both occurred
to save time in the preparation of food.
Canned food was developed in the 19th
century, for military use, and became more
popular during World War I.
Experience in World War II contributed to
the development of frozen foods and the
frozen food industry.
Many of these products designed for
storage longevity and ease of
preparation in the battle field.
Following the war, some of these
companies created new freeze-dried and
canned foods for home use.
TYPES OF CONVENIENCE FOODS
 Convenience foods can vary by country and
geographic region.
Convenience foods can include products
such as candies
 beverages such as soft drinks, juices,fizzy
drinks and milk,
processed meats and cheeses
canned products
 Additional convenience foods include frozen pizza,
chips , cookies and many others….
Criticism on convinence foods
 Due to concerns about obesity and other health
problems, some health organizations have
criticized the high fat, sugar, salt, preservative
and additive content that is present in some
convenience foods.
 On the other hand, several groups have criticized
the environmental harm of single serve packaging
due to the increased usage of plastics that
contributes to solid waste in landfills.
FAST FOOD OR HOME-MADE FOOD
 Nowadays fast food and convenience
food are more popular than home made
food. A reason for this is that home-made
food needs more time until it gets ready.
 On the other hand, Home-made food is
much healthier than fast food.
 Eating at home allows you to customize the portion size
as necessary.
 Eating homemade foods let you add in more fresh fruits
and vegetables to your diets.
 Preparing food at home allows you to be more
economical with your money.
 You can also use healthier cooking methods and
healthy ingredients when making your own
meals.
