Some people prefer to eat at food stands or restaurants. Other people prefer to prepare and eat food at home. Which do you prefer? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
These days, people enjoy a plethora of dining options. It is now possible to eat food at fine restaurants serving food from around the world, or to use modern technology to prepare great food in the comfort of our own homes. I prefer to eat at home, rather than going out. I feel this way for two reasons, which I will explore in the following essay.
To begin with, home cooked meals are healthier than meals from restaurants, and I strongly value my health. While meals prepared at restaurants are certainly delicious, they include a lot of oil, salt and sugar. Over consumption of such ingredients can have a profound effect on our health, and can even lead to chronic illnesses. When I cook for myself at home, I precisely measure the amounts of unhealthy ingredients that go into my recipes and try my best to limit them whenever possible. It is true that my meals may not taste quite as savory at those I might get at a restaurant, but this does not diminish my enjoyment of the meal. Rather than enjoying just the taste of the food, much of my pleasure is derived from the enjoyment that went into the cooking of it, and the peace of mind that I gain from knowing that I am taking care of my body.
Secondly, these days restaurants are increasingly expensive, and this is a major consideration in today’s precarious economic situation. I do not blame the restaurants for this - they must pay a lot for labor, real estate and utilities - but it is true that a meal that might cost five dollars to prepare at home will cost ten times that amount when purchased at a restaurant. Moreover, my country has a tipping culture, which adds increased costs every time I eat out. For example, I remember last month how I paid about fifteen dollars for a simple meal of fish and chips. Potatoes are clearly one of the most inexpensive vegetables in the world, and since I live near the sea, fresh fish can be bought at a local market for just a few dollars a pound. I enjoyed my meal, but paying that much for it made me feel like I was being irresponsible with my money.
In conclusion, I certainly prefer to eat at home rather than at a restaurant. I feel this way because eating at home is healthier, and it makes a lot more economic sense than going out for an expensive meal.

What are above readability scores?
---------------------
Better to have 5 paragraphs with 3 arguments. And try always support/against one side but compare two sides, like this:
para 1: introduction
para 2: reason 1. address both of the views presented for reason 1
para 3: reason 2. address both of the views presented for reason 2
para 4: reason 3. address both of the views presented for reason 3
para 5: conclusion.
So how to find out those reasons. There is a formula:
reasons == advantages or
reasons == disadvantages
for example, we can always apply 'save time', 'save/make money', 'find a job', 'make friends', 'get more information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
or we can apply 'waste time', 'waste money', 'no job', 'make bad friends', 'get bad information' as reasons to all essay/speaking topics.
