× It had a lot of seafood inside it, for example prawns.
✓ It has a lot of seafood in it, for example prawns.
The student used 'had' which is simple past; because they are describing the current dish's contents, present perfect or simple present is appropriate. Use 'has' (simple present) to describe a general property of the dish. Also replace 'inside it' with 'in it' for more natural phrasing.
× The food that is spicy and sour, I really, really like it very much when I were when I was young.
✓ The food that is spicy and sour — I really, really liked it when I was young.
Several issues: subject-verb agreement and tense consistency. 'When I was young' requires past tense, so use 'liked' not 'like'. The clause 'I were' is incorrect; the correct past form for 'I' is 'was'. Also avoid repeating 'I' and redundant adverbs ('really, really' plus 'very much'); simplify to 'really liked' or 'liked very much'.
× The food that is spicy and sour, I really, really like it very much when I were when I was young.
✓ The food that is spicy and sour — I really, really liked it when I was young.
The time marker 'when I was young' places the action in the past, so the verb should be in the past tense ('liked'). Using present tense 'like' with a past time reference is incorrect. Also correct 'were' to 'was' for the first person singular past.
× MMM well I would say no. I would eat different foods but not because of different times. I just eat it when I wanted.
✓ Well, I would say no. I eat different foods but not because of the seasons. I just eat them when I want to.
Tense inconsistency: 'I just eat it when I wanted' mixes present habitual with past 'wanted'. Use simple present 'want' for habitual actions. Also 'different foods' is plural so refer to them with 'them' not 'it'. Replace 'different times' with 'the seasons' or 'different seasons' for clarity.
× No it has not changed since I was a child.
✓ No, it has not changed since I was a child.
Add a comma after 'No' for natural speech punctuation. The sentence is otherwise correct: 'has not changed since I was a child' correctly uses present perfect to describe a change from past until now.
× I like Tom Yum is my favorite food since I was a child.
✓ Tom Yum has been my favorite food since I was a child.
The original is a fused sentence combining two clauses incorrectly. To express a preference that began in the past and continues now, use present perfect ('has been') and a clear subject: 'Tom Yum has been my favorite food since I was a child.'
× Early has not changed in until now.
✓ It has not changed up until now.
The phrase 'Early has not changed in until now' is ungrammatical. Likely intended meaning is 'It has not changed up until now' or 'It has remained the same until now.' Use 'up until now' or 'until now' with present perfect 'has not changed.'
