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
Why?
Water. It takes 227 litres to grow an avocado
Deforestation
Food miles
Not the person you asked, but I’m guessing they said it because of their water consumption, growing location, and being a monoculture crop. Some are experimenting with cover crops to help.
