I plan to stop any food restriction when I am 70 years old.

I don't know about you, but already I find myself unable to eat food that are too rich or sweet. I think by 70, we would definitely only want easily digestible food??

I can still eat too rich or sweet things :oops: Lately I find chicken has chicken smell :roll: so I don't eat certain chicken dishes. I am looking forward to the days I can eat chicken curry without feeling guilty

I told myself that I will cook on my own for as long as possible.

I'm planning to ensure that I have enough food for retirement, https://www.kiasuparents.com/kiasu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=19097&start=260#p1826535 to provide me with enough food / vegetable :evil:

Herbs today, veg tomorrow.
If only they allow me to rear chickens

Oh was that the inspiration for your herbs? I would love to have a thriving veg garden and some chickens too. Before AVA crack down, I had neighbours who kept chickens in their gardens. It is not very hard if you have some land and nonfussy neighbours. My grandparents and parents had fruit trees and there is satisfaction in harvesting from one's own garden.

For health reasons, money reasons or just want to be independent into old age?
I am not an enthusiastic cook.

Free range chickens in the garden. It's very nice.

Given that I don't have some land, it would be nearly impossible for me to rear some chickens
A thriving veg garden may still be possible, if we go the hydroponics vertical farm route.

I remember my relatives' kampong years ago where they had rambutans, pineapples, vegetables and herbs in their own backyard.
