> 10/10 times in severe poverty, I’d save up for for the cheeseburger

I lived on 500€/month for several years with only a microwave oven, and if your BMI is between 20 and 25, you can just eat canned vegetables at 0.50€ half of the time and be healthy.

I can't eat green beans anymore though.

Personally, it was corn I got burnt out on, but canned foods were a lifesaver. Usually precooked too, can skip the microwave.
