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! Especially stew with them, you can throw in pretty much anything (veggies, meat, adjust your spice levels…) and once you learn the correct balance it’s very tasty and filling.

      Fuck yeah. I’m lazy as fuck so I buy cheap canned beans of all kinds. They’re so versatile! Full of protein and carbs and vitamins and minerals and fibre. Science shows people who eat beans live longer and have fewer health issues. You can make baked potatoes, stew, curry, chilli, burritos, nachos, refried beans, bean salad (with or without pasta and tuna).
