× Well, I usually eat snacks in evening time with my tea because it's the time that I feel hungry and I need something to munch on.
✓ Well, I usually eat snacks in the evening time with my tea because it's the time that I feel hungry and I need something to munch on.
The phrase 'in evening time' is missing the definite article 'the'. In English, when referring to specific times of the day, we use 'the' before 'morning', 'afternoon', and 'evening'. Therefore, it should be 'in the evening time'.
× Yes definitely because I do healthy snacking such as fresh fruits and some dry fruit and nuts therefore they're healthy and I eat snacks in portion therefore they are not harmful for my health.
✓ Yes definitely because I do healthy snacking such as fresh fruit and some dried fruit and nuts; therefore, they're healthy and I eat snacks in portions; therefore, they are not harmful to my health.
The word 'fruits' is often uncountable when referring to food in general, so 'fresh fruit' is preferred. Also, 'dry fruit' should be 'dried fruit' as it refers to fruit that has been dried. The phrase 'in portion' should be pluralized to 'in portions' to indicate quantity. Additionally, 'harmful for' should be 'harmful to' as the correct preposition with 'harmful' is 'to'.
× Yes, when I was young I used to eat some junk in my snacks, like some Osaka choriz and some fried food, and it wasn't healthy for me, I knew.
✓ Yes, when I was young I used to eat some junk in my snacks, like some Osaka chorizo and some fried food, and it wasn't healthy for me, I knew.
The word 'choriz' seems to be a misspelling of 'chorizo', which is a noun and should be spelled correctly. This is not a grammar issue but a spelling correction to maintain clarity and correctness.
× But it tastes so good and even now I used to mince that.
✓ But it tastes so good and even now I miss that.
The phrase 'I used to mince that' is incorrect. The intended meaning is likely 'I miss that'. 'Used to' indicates past habitual action and does not fit with 'even now'. Also, 'mince' is a verb meaning to chop finely, which does not fit the context. Therefore, the sentence is corrected to 'I miss that'.
× Well I really do love fried food but I usually avoid that to maintain my health and I usually snack on fruits and nuts and but I occasionally eat fried food such as samosas and kachoris.
✓ Well, I really do love fried food, but I usually avoid it to maintain my health, and I usually snack on fruits and nuts, but I occasionally eat fried food such as samosas and kachoris.
The original sentence has redundant conjunctions 'and but' which is incorrect. Also, 'that' should be 'it' when referring to 'fried food'. Commas are added for clarity and to separate clauses properly. The corrected sentence improves readability and grammatical correctness.
