W: Why are you staring at my shopping basket?

M: So many vegetables. Are you going to eat all of those?

W: Yes. My family like eating vegetables.

M: But it must take so long to prepare all that food. Wouldn’t instant meals be easier?

W: Maybe, but I try not to buy that kind of food. I want my family to be healthy.

M: But those carrots you’re buying, for example. You could buy frozen ones that you don’t have to peel. There are all sorts of frozen vegetables available - peas, potatoes, corn…

W: Fresh food is better. There is more goodness in it.

M: Well, when I finish work at the office at 6:00 p.m., I don’t want to have to go home and prepare a big meal. That’s why I shop for food that is fast.

W: That’s not a good excuse. I get off work one hour later than you every day, but I think my family’s health is more important than convenience. I won’t give them the food that comes from a factory.
