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

    Rice, tuna from a packet, and soy sauce - cheap, delicious, healthy, and easy. You wanna get fancy, you can add some sesame oil, furikake, chop up some green onions, whatever you got kicking around.

      Oh man I’ve got a similar recipe for you:

      • boil some bean sprouts for a few minutes, strain
      • pan fry strained sprouts with a splash of sesame oil. add a dab of tobanjan. sprinke with salt & MSG
      • add tuna from a can and pan fry for a few more minutes

      serve. one of my favs.
