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
Curiously, peanuts ๐ฅ.
100 gr of peanuts have almost all the fatty acids that you need in a day, with almost half the minimum calorie intake required and half the protein you need. They are satiating, VERY easy to grow, and even used as a way to replenish the soil with nutrients in crop rotation.
If you ask me what was the mana taken through the dessert, I'd say most likely peanuts.
It couldn't be peanuts, because it evaporated or melted when the sun hit it.
Lentils
Buy raw material and cook yourself.
Most premade food is expensive because:
There is one more side to the quadrangle "time" unless you include that in cost. If you get cheap ingredients that are healthy and you take the time you can make delicious often the money is to save time or skill.
Eggs with salt. Boiled, scrambled, any style really
Popcorn is up there with low calorie snacks, not really a practical meal, but a good alternative to potato chips.
You should shop at a grocery outlet, that's how you get all three achieved. there's so much cheap overstocked healthy food, because originally was too expensive and people didn't want to pay that much, so I benefit. Best grocery store there's ever been, prove me wrong!
It also depends on the quality and processing of the food as well and taste and nutrients can increase with the quality of the food
for example your local farmers market would have fresher higher quality food than the mass produced stuff found in your average store
Fried soy beans with garlic. Tastes approx like potato chips, about the same price as beans, and decently nutritious. Just don't use too much salt or oil.
I think this may depend on where you live or are at the moment and what you consider cheap. I am in Mexico right now and start my days with fresh fruit salads, maybe with some yogurt and musli. With my West European economy it's really cheap.
potatoes!
