Sweet or savoury food?
Here's what people in London said:
Man 1: I think I prefer savoury, when I was younger I ate sweet things, and
I think I prefer savoury things when I'm older. There's more varieties I
think, more varieties in savoury things than sweet things.
Man 2: Sweet food, I like sweet things, cakes and also fruits, like mangos
and pineapples.
Woman 1: I prefer savoury food during the day, but from time to time I
have a craving I think, because my body demands some sugar rush, but
other than that it's savoury.
Man 3: Sweet food, it's more fun! Brighter colours, more flavours!
Woman 4: I definitely prefer sweet food. I do sometimes end up overdosing
on sweet food and needing to have something savoury. But the majority of
the time I like sweet food.
