Differences in what constitutes cheap food from various countries fascinate me sometimes. The food you posted is practically a treat when going out on special occasions where I'm from.

Pic related is ours, and if you know where to look, you can get this for the price of half an American dollar.

i had a roommate who spent all his money on crack
he would eat at nice restaurants until he blew his money on a crack binge and then resort to eating toaster-oven'd chicken patties and put them on white bread (cause we had no microwave)
he was a picky eater, tho
incredibly lazy, too, willing to blow his minimum wage paycheck on every convenience possible until it ran out.

i had an ex with a single tweaker dad growing up, she told me about ghetto pizza:
>american cheese slice, over ketchup, over a cold tortilla
it was amazing to watch her eat. she would hoover over her food with a defensive posture and scarf it down hella fast. she would load the biggest plates and eat it all, not to mention picking at all the food while im still cooking it

I remember my friend growing up was constantly eating bean and chese burritos, but idk if thats poor food or comfort food.

i remember hanging out at my friends house whose mom cooked and dad sold weed for a living, +benefits? i think mom would cook regular white people meals
dad had a swastika tattooed on his hand-shake hand and constantly had black people just hanging out in his living room nogging out, dude was a tru nogger. the family was true noggers, we joked that my friend would never get a job, then one day he suddently got a job. standing at the front door of a weed place

we would buy 3 packs of hotdogs, a pack of white bread, and a can of chilli for $5 and cook it at the skatepark. it would feed hellla us kids. now its gone but they put a organic food coop there. idk how much food is there, but i would guess $25 for the same weight in food

I assume it's something to do with economies of scale.
Sure one pizza might cost over $10 to make, but if your selling 50 or something a day the consistent revenue can help make up for it.
