That kind of what you get went you super processed foods. If you want save money you have to buy low processed foods. For example, you can get a 3lb bag of apples ($5), 5 cans of beans ($5), 2lb carrots ($2), 5 lbs Potatoes ($5) for the same price.

It really is. Stuff you can get fresh at a bakery in France? Not that processed. The bread they bake at the grocery store? Probably fairly processed. They often put a lot of crap in there, and
The stuff made in a factory, like most hamburger buns? That stuff is generally so processed it’s almost a lie to call it bread. It would take a chemistry degree to make that from only things you could harvest personally

maybe wherever you live, but here in sweden at least a lot of the time bread is just straight up baked in the store, and most pre-packaged bread is only slightly removed from that.
hell a lot of the pre-packaged bread is specifically wholesome, and at least from one brand it doesn’t even contain any preservatives or emulsifiers, literally just normal bread ingredients and a pinch of sugar.

But you’d really struggle to make burgers and a Danish.
