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) and vegetables
- lentils, beans, rice
- mushrooms
- chicken
- just eat in moderation
Edit 2: Thanks for the various answers. Now there are a lot of (mostly bean-based) recipes for everyone to try out!
Also someone made a community for cheap healthy food after seeing this topic!
When there’s a half inch layer of fat, I think healthy has booked it out the door.
Fat is not necessarily unhealthy. The “healthy” qualifier is too subjective here, as everyone has different needs and nutritional goals.
Fat is not necessarily bad though.
I’m not sure what you mean. Who eats chicken fat?
Some people don’t eat the skin because they think it’s unhealthy.
