Now, at the outset I'll say - this is not a representation of all healthy vs unhealthy food BUT It does give us some insight into how easy it is to prepare/eat some different healthy and unhealthy meals
Firstly - cost. They actually all do reasonably similar - Big Mac meal comes in at $6 per person, pasta is cheapest at $4 per person, and steak comes in the highest at $8 per person
If you chose a cheaper cut of meat for the steak, you could probably get that down to the same price as the Big Mac But here comes the first enormous issue - which is cheaper on externalities???
Humans are funny in that we like to choose the easiest path - no cooking or washing up. It's a huge lifestyle change to start cooking, especially for one. But it can be done!
Oh of course. I cook 4-5 nights a week and love it. But we like to pretend that it's easy when it really isn't!
There's a reason I love cooking apps that show the quick and easy meals lol
I use Mealime and it's really good!
