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, beans
  • rice
  • mushrooms

    Contrasty to popular belief. These fall short on the healthy part.

            When we’re talking about consuming it as a major component of the diet things change. 2 eggs a day is something like 140 cal. A dozen eggs a day to get half your calorie needs, 7 dozen eggs per week? No studies have been done where there’s been that degree of dietary cholesterol.

            Edit - the answer to OPs question is probably lentils.
