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!

I am a pretty basic redditor. never even heard of the 3rd party apps until the whole API thing happened. but i followed the news and was seriously triggered by how the admins acted towards the users and the mods who worked voluntarily for reddit. i feel like i cannot in good faith stay with such a corporation, and i wholeheartedly support the communities migrating here.

where i'm from there was also a similar incidence, where one of the largest forum experienced a massive exodus because of 3rd party app issues. it turned out to be a huge success for the new forum. so it can be done - but it does require solidarity and perhaps more importantly functionality.

so, hang in there ;)

edit: i meant basic not based LOL. sorry :(
