Seems so odd to me, here in the UK some of the cheapest foods are things like carrots, potatoes, beans, oats. Things that people should be eating more of.
Don't have enough time is the next excuse I hear. I just made lunch in seconds by combining the free milk at work with some roughly ground oats. Along with some dried fruit. Incredibly cheap meal and takes far less time than walking to the McDonalds across the road to order a burger. Don't like milk? Use water, I only use milk because its free and cold. Cold lunch is nice at this time of year.
So you have a place to store that food? Yeah - when I worked retail we had a fridge and a cabinet in the breakroom, but there were 200 people working in that building all having to share a single fridge and cabinet, which means they effectively didn't exist.
But there were a couple fast food places in the parking lot.
My lunch didn't require a fridge to store it. Room temperature or even out in the sun would have been completely fine. Anywhere you feel like placing a tub really.
Dry ingredients, its never going to spoil until you add liquid which is done at the time I am going to eat it.
I've seen videos of people like Atomic Shrimp post videos of 1 dollar a day meal challenges (which he hasnt done in a good while, for various reasons) and stuff, and I was always absolutely gobsmacked by how cheap vegetables, flour, etc were in the UK, even when the price is converted to USD.
They're paying pennies everywhere I pay dollars.
Tbh doing it for £1 now would be difficult to make videos on. Not because you can't but because compared to when he started there is much less choice within the budget.
Only so many ways you can cook the same or similar ingredients.
Which is probably one of the many reasons why its been a good while since his last cooking challenge video.
he still does cooking videos, just not like " feed 2 people 3 meals for 1 dollar" videos.
