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
  • rice
  • mushrooms

    Most fruit that’s in season would cover all three.

      Berries are the tastiest fruit, strawberries are unrivaled. Maybe a sweet mandarine could come close.

        Let me tell you about mangoes. Not necessarily the cheapest depending on area but if you’re in the right area and season you can get a box for almost nothing.

        I do love a good blueberry though.
