Even a lot of that is hugely inflated at the various steps to get to the consumer, in developing countries basic staples can be astonishingly cheap by western standards. Even semi-developed India you can have a decent diet for roughly $4USD a day: https://www.numbeo.com/food-prices/country_result.jsp?country=India https://www.numbeo.com/food-prices/country_result.jsp?countr...
- abdullahkhalids 7y agoDefinitely for far less. In one of the most expensive private universities in Pakistan, in the cafeteria you can eat three "home-cooked meals" for $4USD/day. I.e. on top of the ingredients you are paying for cooking/cleaning labor and space. You can eat for maybe half that at home.
