Re: gimme your unpopular opinions about food

Yes it is?

I can stick a $1 microwave pizza in and have it done by the time I've fed my cats. I can boil water and cook pasta while I do a couple of other things. That also costs about $1. Tonight I have a third of a loaf of italian bread ($.65) with about $.75 worth of pre-cooked smoked sausage on it that also took about a minute to microwave. Some days dinner will be a bag of microwave popcorn (about $.50). Or I could do half a package of macaroni and cheese for less than $1 and again not time or labor intensive to make.

All of those things are fairly crappy dinners but are easy and cheap and (more importantly) very filling for that easy and cheap. Living in the Northeast US, that dollar or so would buy me very little in the way of vegetables and on their own they would not be filling.

When I had money, I used to do things like make a stir fry with lots of vegetables, some chicken breast, and some brown rice. Or make burritos with lots of veggies, some lean meat, and two tortillas. Or other similar meals that take a lot more preparation (like cutting up the veggies and stirring things in the wok) and are at least three times as expensive. I would love to eat healthy again. If I made a living wage at my primary job (I recently got a "raise" to minimum wage because NY raised their minimum wage... after 10 years at this job), then I would be able to do this. It just isn't happening at the moment.
