This whole picture can be summed up in two words:
Can't cook
Exactly. So much of it is like refined and premade/finished shit. Presliced cheese? ๐ Buy a cheese plane/slicer and a block of cheese ffs. Much cheaper.
Although depending on the country, the actual price on the low end is comparable or even pricier for the blocks.
However, you get access to tons more really good cheese if you buy in blocks.
Love me some block of cheddar. That can go on spaghetti Bolognese, crackers, sandwiches, beans or just over some chips for some cheesy goodness.
Also pre-grated cheese has anti-caking agents, so it does things like not melt as well. A rotary grater and block of cheese can get you a better experience for a bit less money, and just a bit of work.
In addition to cheddar, a block of whole milk low moisture mozzarella for making pizza is excellent
honestly you don't even need to learn to cook, just buy an assload of vegetables and some protein and toss that in a big pot, fry it up for a bit, then add water and let simmer for as long as you can.
soup/stew is, in practical terms, the best food.
also depending on what exact ingredients you get you can do what we in sweden call "mess in a pan" where you just dice up some root vegetable, onions, some protein (e.g. sausage), fry that up with some salt and pepper, and maybe serve with an egg. Trivial and hilariously cheap.
For 80 bucks you get AT LEAST 8 kg of that dish, and if you just add a bunch of different root veggies and peas and whatever fits, that's basically pet food but for humans. You shouldn't be missing any particular nutrient and it's so good that i barely mind eating nothing but that day in and day out.
