Changes in Piet and in Shopping
Britain is (1) an island between the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean. For those who live near the sea, fish and shellfish have always been important. Before people had fridges to keep food cold and fresh, they started to keep fish from going bad by salting, drying or smoking it. One thing which has changed is the way some people think about some foods. For example, shellfish like oysters were fairly cheap and quite ordinary. They were popular with poor people because anyone could go to a beach and pick them up, for free. Today they are (2) harder to find and usually expensive. They have become special.
In older days those who lived away from the sea first ate wild animals, but then they began keeping sheep, cows and chickens on farms. Farmers grew fruit and vegetables. During the Middle Ages, (3) from the eleventh to the fifteenth century
, ships brought sugar, nuts and things from far away. When sailors went to foreign places, they brought back more kinds of food. At first only rich people could buy the things brought from overseas, but slowly they became cheaper and easier to find.
When (4) gas and electricity came into people’s houses, cooking became much easier. Thanks to fridges and freezers people could keep food much longer. The diet of many British people is quite different to that of their parents. Today we eat bananas and oranges and can buy them all the year round but it was very difficult to find them (5) in Britain in the middle of the 20th century. Nowadays we have many more foods to choose from and new ways to cook them, like microwave ovens. But we have less time for shopping and cooking.
These days we drive to supermarkets where we (6) can buy everything under one roof Some forty years ago people walked to their nearest shops almost every day. They went to the baker’s for bread, to the butcher’s for meat, to the greengrocer’s for fruit and vegetables and so on.
We also know more about health and the body today. Children grow up learning that some foods are good for us while others, (7) for example some sugars and fats, are bad. Some people have tries to change their diet to eat healthier food and most shopping centres have health food shops which sell lots of different natural foods. Some people, called vegetarians choose not to eat meat at all.
