“…While nutrition education activities typically focus on educating individuals on proper cooking methods for vegetables, healthy eating habits, and lifestyles, communication recognizes that the eating behaviors of an individual are the product of its continuous interaction with the environment. 80 As many critics suggest, 81 food companies use social media to market their products by targeting societal demands, such as the cooking method. Scientists 82 are increasingly concerned that nutrition-related content on social media makes us think differently not only about food but also about the preparation techniques and the materials used to prepare it.…”

Africans are leaving a period of increased unpredictability of new and emerging crises, from the pandemic to war and climate catastrophes. Only if we invest in boosting our capacity to respond to various crises will Africans be able to survive and thrive. Ethiopia is pursuing diversification of its food and nutrition security. However, preparation and consumption problems contribute to a health risk linked to malnutrition. Thus, the purpose of this review is to scrutinize preparation methods, evaluate nutrient losses, and outline future agendas. Vegetable preparation is neglected in Ethiopia, and the methods, cooking standards, and nutrient loss are all not identified. Likewise, the health risks and fate of malnutrition in the country are increasing extraordinarily. Ethiopian traditions of vegetable cooking are not supported by technology, food makers are not equipped with training, and the government is not concerned about the problems. Vitamins and minerals are entirely lost from vegetables during the cooking process, leading to the development of health risks such as stunting, wasting, and underweight problems. The government does not monitor, check, and evaluate cooked vegetables. Hence, Ethiopia should set cooking standards, and of all methods scrutinized, 2-5 minutes (leafy), 5-10 minutes (roots and tubers), and 3-8 minutes (stem) are recommended by many scholars as the standard for cooking vegetables.
