Cold Truths
Healthy You!
Is there any truth behind the saying “You are what you eat”? We put this to the test by asking five people to open their fridge doors and talk about their lifestyles. Can you guess which fridge belongs to which person? Maybe you can recognise your own fridge here!

Ellie 24 Junior doctor
There’s not enough room to swing a cat in my small apartment, so I don’t cook very often. My fridge is usually half empty and I’m often too tired to eat much anyway. I often end up saving part of my meal for the next day. Some evenings, I’ll just have something quick, like toast, or even just a yoghurt with honey. As a doctor, I know I had better change the way I eat, but I just don’t have the time or energy right now.

Jenny 31 Teacher
My husband and I avoid all products that come from animals. This means we don’t eat meat, and any milk or cheese had better be
dairy-free. We like cooking at home and make our meals from fresh, seasonal fruit and vegetables. Cooking together gives us a chance to relax and catch up on each other’s days. If we have children, I want to bring them up just like us, but my husband says that everyone should be able to make their own lifestyle choices.
我和我的丈夫什么动物制品都不吃。这意味着我们不吃肉,牛奶或奶酪也最好不是动物乳制成的。我们喜欢在家做饭,用新鲜的时令水果和蔬菜来做饭。一起做饭给了我们放松的机会,也让我们聊聊彼此日常的情况。如果有了孩子,我想按照我们的生活方式养育他们,但我丈夫说,每个人都应该有权利选择自己的生活方式。

Ted 35 Construction(建筑) worker
Each day at the construction site(建筑工地) is more or less(或多或少) the same - tiring! When I get back home, there’s nothing more satisfying than a big meat dinner. I guess I’ve always been a big meat eater and in this house, no family meal is complete without some form of meat. I still don’t think that anything can beat(击败) my mum’s homemade(自制的) sausages(香肠), though.
beat-beat-beaten

Mike 49 Chef (厨师)
With five children, we’re one big family! My wife and I both work full-time(全职), so life can get pretty(非常) busy! Like a lot of chefs I know, I don’t really do much cooking at home. Sometimes I bring home food from the restaurant where I work. Once a week we do a big shop and buy a lot of frozen food(冰冻食物). I know we should eat more fresh fruit and vegetables, but ready(现成的,准备好的) meals are so convenient(方便的).
