× I would have to say that my favorite food is sushi, primarily because I'm a huge fan of the fresh, delicate flavor an artistic way it is present.
✓ I would have to say that my favorite food is sushi, primarily because I'm a huge fan of the fresh, delicate flavor and the artistic way it is presented.
The sentence misuses articles and omits necessary conjunctions and verb forms. Add 'the' before 'artistic way' to specify it, add 'and' to join two noun phrases, and use passive 'is presented' (past participle) to describe how sushi is shown. This makes the sentence grammatically complete and natural.
× When I was little, I was really into sweet and fruity snacks like mango rice and strawberry candies, and I also loved my mom's handmade tomato and eggs noodles because they taste warm and comfortable.
✓ When I was little, I was really into sweet and fruity snacks like mango rice and strawberry candies, and I also loved my mom's handmade tomato-and-egg noodles because they tasted warm and comforting.
'Eggs' should be singular in the compound noun 'tomato-and-egg noodles', and 'taste' should be past tense 'tasted' to match 'When I was little'. 'Comfortable' is incorrect for food; 'comforting' is the appropriate adjective. Hyphenate the compound for clarity.
× Absolutely yes. I either eat different foods according to the seasons. For example I have cold sweet bean Jelly and watermelons. In hot summers cool down while in cold winter I prefer warm dishes like hot pots and pork ribs help me to keep my body warm.
✓ Absolutely. I eat different foods according to the seasons. For example, in summer I have cold sweet bean jelly and watermelon to cool down, while in winter I prefer warm dishes like hot pot and pork ribs to help keep my body warm.
Several issues: 'Absolutely yes' is awkward; 'Absolutely' suffices. 'Either' is unnecessary. Sentence fragments and capitalization errors ('Jelly' should be lowercase). Use consistent seasonal nouns ('summer'/'winter') and parallel structure: 'in summer ... to cool down' versus 'in winter ... to help keep my body warm'. Replace 'hot pots' with 'hot pot' as a general dish reference.
× Yes, it had changed a lot and when I was a kid I only loved sweets and fried snacks, but now I prefer nice and healthy home cooked dishes, light shrimp, fish or seasonal vegetables and I pay more attention to my diet's health.
✓ Yes, it has changed a lot. When I was a kid I only loved sweets and fried snacks, but now I prefer nice, healthy home-cooked dishes, light shrimp or fish and seasonal vegetables, and I pay more attention to my diet's health.
Use present perfect 'has changed' for a change that continues to the present, not past perfect 'had changed'. Split into two sentences for clarity. Hyphenate 'home-cooked'. Use commas for list clarity and 'shrimp or fish and seasonal vegetables' for parallelism. 'Diet's health' is awkward but acceptable; 'my diet' or 'my health' would be clearer.
