    Reading comprehension

    In the old days, food tasted better and was more nutritious. This is because of the
    cooking methods our great grandparents used. There were no modern appliances like
    microwave ovens, food processors or automatic cookers like what we use today. Food
    may be cooked faster in modern times, but it is not as tasty or nutritious as the food
    our great grandparents cooked. In yesteryears, our great grandparents used charcoal
    to cook. They would use a pestle and mortar to pound their spices. The spices were
    used to marinate raw food such as fish and chicken or to cook curries. They would
    wrap fish in banana leaves before grilling the fish over a fire. They also cooked
    vegetables which were freshly picked from their own gardens. Thus, the nutritional
    value in the food was maintained and it tasted better.
