Many people might argue that what to eat is a matter of personal preference, so it is people themselves who should try to make sure what they eat is healthy. In the supermarket, for instance, people should purchase fresh food and fruits and avoid buying expired food no matter how cheap it might be. When they dine out in restaurants, they should choose those that provide clean and healthy food rather than those that sell cheap food. Furthermore, if one is overweight, he/she could choose to avoid eating high calories food like bananas, chocolates, and sea food. Anyway, this line of thought would think that individuals are fully responsible for eating food that is healthy to their health.

许多人可能会争辩说，吃什么是个人喜好的问题，因此，人们自己应该设法确保他们吃的食物是健康的。例如，在超市里，人们应该购买新鲜的食物和水果，避免购买过期食品，无论多么便宜。当他们在外面餐馆吃饭，他们应该选择那些提供洁净、健康食品的餐馆，而不是那些卖便宜货的餐馆。此外，如果一个人超重，他/她可以选择避免吃高热量的食物，如香蕉、巧克力和海鲜。不管怎样，这种思路认为，关于吃对身体有益的食品，个人负全部责任。

Yet, rather than a simply personal issue, food is always also a social issue in terms of its production, distribution and consumption. In this sense, the government has a significant role to play in making sure that food on its citizens’ table is healthy. On the one hand, the government should make strict laws and regulations to ensure the quality of food produced and sold in market. On the other hand, the government should also avail of every opportunity to educate its citizens about the types of food they should eat to stay healthy.  

然而，食品不仅仅是一个简单的个人问题，它在生产、分配和消费方面也往往是一个社会问题。从这个意义上说，政府在确保其公民桌上食品健康方面应该发挥重要作用。一方面，政府应制定严格的法律法规，确保生产和销售的食品的质量。另一方面，政府也应该利用每一个机会教育市民为了健康他们应该吃的食物种类。

To sum up, in order for our food to be healthy, both individuals and the government have their share of, though different, responsibilities. A healthy diet would only be possible with the efforts made by both individuals and the government. 

总之，为了使我们的食物健康，个人和政府都有各自不同的责任。只有个人和政府一起努力，健康的饮食才有可能。
