Processed food like frozen pizza is expensive as a substantial amount of (manual?), well-paid labour goes into convenience food.
- jessaustin 10y agoIn Switzerland, imported and unprocessed food is surprisingly cheap. Veggies are maybe 20-30% more expensive than Germany. I must be misunderstanding something, because these two sentences seem to contradict. In Germany itself, "unprocessed food" is more expensive than in most of the rest of the world.
