Answer: Some people think that healthy snacks lack flavour, but that is not true.

The hook is the first one or two sentences of an essay. It works as its introduction. The main purpose of a hook is to grab the reader's attention so that they continue reading the text.

In this case, the hook is telling us that an assumption we might have is actually wrong. This is meant to increase our curiosity about what the rest of the essay is going to discuss.
