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

    I’d say something along the line of Chili sin Carne, for example rice and beans, which are both cheap, healthy, and taste pretty good on their own, together with some spices, chilis, maybe canned tomatoes and so on for extra deliciousness.

    All of these ingredients store well and can be bought very cheaply in bulk.
