Is there a food that is cheap, delicious and healthy at the same time?

nijntjefan@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 93 points –

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

It doesn't have to be bottled. You can buy your own carbonation machine for less than 100€. Use nice cold water and add some ginger or lime to it, and it makes for a great summer drink.

I don't know much about it but isn't carbonation machine kind of unsustainable with all those carbon bottles?

You just need one soda maker and a single reusable bottle.

yeah right but you need to buy those cylinders of CO2 no?

they are refillable. there is no reason to throw them away.
