    Gotta cook at home.

    Any alternative options run $5 for 800 calories in San Francisco, besides home cooking?

    Ah! Taco Bell does have ‘em beat:

    Anywhere else I think you’d need [app] coupons to achieve parity, though I could be wrong.

      I swear Domino’s pizza is the best calorie to dollar ratio here. You can get a pizza that’s probably more than your daily calorie requirement for under $5 if you buy something like a Hawaiian at lunch time.

      Just checked and a deep pan pepperoni is over 1200kcal and is AUD7 (USD4.60).

        A bottle of oil is more than your daily calorie requirements and is probably cheaper.

        Ding ding ding!

        Have to use one of their permanent coupons, otherwise it’s more than twice as expensive ($18.99).

        Has between 2550-2640 calories as built, so:

        Taco Bell: 3.38/420=0.008

        Domino’s: 7.99/2600=0.0031

        .8 cents per calorie versus .3 cents per calorie. What a deal! (Health evaluation not included :) )

      Omg a cheesy bean and rice burrito used to be like $1.29 or so just a few years ago.

        Used to be 99c and had pico on it. I still will eat them but they’re not the same :(
