  • yeah right but you need to buy those cylinders of CO2 no?

  • I don't know much about it but isn't carbonation machine kind of unsustainable with all those carbon bottles?

  • I know tinned tuna is supposed to be good in macros, but I don't know if they're that delicious. Always tastes a bit too fishy for me. But there are like canned tuna in tomato sauce and those are quite good - tho i suppose it's less healthy because of the sauce

  • Thanks for the long write-up. Not sure entirely if it is on the topic, but I guess someone might find your tips on keto useful

  • Thanks but I'll pass on food advice from the UK /s

  • on a perhaps relevant note air-fried stuff may also fit the category. like air fried sweet potato chips, delicious even without seasonings!

  • I didn't even know that you can add soy sauce to sweet potatoes!

  • That's a good point. I guess I was thinking more along the line of dishes. But then there is still some food which is delicious without seasoning - like (good) sashimi, or fruits as others suggested.

  • While I also like chicken, the more delicious chicken tends to be pricy (as in the cheap chicken is often bland in taste - but I'll concede that's kind of splitting the hair.

    But you're probably right about fruits.

  • That's a good point, but even within potatoes there is perhaps still a trade-off between "delicious" and "healthy". As in steamed potatoes without sauces or stuff is kind of meh, while french fries are not that healthy.

    Is there a food that is cheap, delicious and healthy at the same time?

    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!

    Glory to Hong Kong on YouTube again - Backup here?

    I'm not very tech savy. Is there a way to upload these videos somewhere here on the server so they would not be removed again?
