I have a theory that there is a impossible trinity (like in economics), where a food cannot be delicious, cheap and healthy at the same time. At maximum 2 of the 3 can be achieved.

Is there any food that breaks this theory?

Edit: I was thinking more about dishes (or something you put in your mouth) than the raw substances

Some popular suggestions include

  • fruits (in season)
  • lentils, beans
  • rice
  • mushrooms
  • cashews_win@lemmy.worldEnglish

    For Brits: Swap “Mexican” for “Indian” or “Polish”

    Also buy your spices from Indian supermarkets/shops/sections of Asda rather than getting Schwartz jars.

    E.g. My local Asda sells a jar of Schwartz cinamon for £2.50. The next aisle sells cinammon in a bag of 3x the amount for £1! Same for rice, noodles and many other ‘foreign’ foods. Polish meat section can often be cheaper than the normal sections.
