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

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

I have a theory that there is a impossible trinity (like in economics [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impossible_trinity]), 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? [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a523e85e-1280-4932-ae09-8b4b45cd7f4c.jpeg]

Kebab plate with vegetables.

A coleague of mine was eating it when he was on a diet to lose weight. It's basically kebab/gyros meat and a vegetable salad with a dresing (usually tzaziki). You have basically no sugar in it, it's just protein and vitamins.

Back in the day it cost like 4-5 € where I live which was pretty cheap for a lunch. Now it'd more like 6-7 € but that's still decent

That is not at all a healthy meal, lol.

That happens when you get told as a child that meat is always healthy.

Of all the things one could eat, meat is generally on the healthy side though...
