More and more people are becoming seriously overweight.

Some people say that the price increase of


fattening foods will solve this problem.

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Obesity has turned into a serious problem with the increasing number of fat people. There is a
viewpoint that the high price of fattening food might control the number of customers as well as eating
this kind of food. I personally am of the opinion that although the price of fattening food impact on
people choice it needs some contributory actions.

To begin with, some claim that just increasing the price of this kind of food does not have any positive
result. First, this trend without any cultural activity might have ironic effects. Some people might think
the high price of this kind of food comes from its popularity or delicacy making this kind of thing a
subject for show off in social media. As a result, fattening food might be transformed into a luxury
symbol. consequently, people who are used to eating this kind of food gain weight leading obesity to a
luxury mark. Thus, some complementary actions should be taken such as promoting healthy food and
informing about the disadvantage of food causing overweight.

However, there are some advantages in increasing the price of fattening food. Firstly, increasing the
price of fatty food might change the order of popularity in everyone's choices. This is because, price
plays a pivotal role in everyone's choices. So healthy alternatives gain more chances to compete with
tempting food, with affordable prices. Furthermore, with ubiquitous advertisements for this kind of
food, everybody tempts to eat fattening food. Since, the high price of this kind of food usually is a
reminder of its disadvantages might have deterrent effects. Thus, in the long term healthy options
because of the reasonable prices will be swapped with fattening food. in addition, it will protect from
eating fattening food which might become a habit.

In conclusion, promoting the disadvantages of fattening foods is a must to prevent the ironic result of
increasing the price of fattening foods. Plus, the high price of fattening food causes a decline in its
popularity leading to change in individuals' eating habits.
