I bought over a pound of steak the other day for $5. (Yes, it was on sale. But it is frequently on sale.) Along with a potato for 50 cents, that's cheaper than a bag of Doritos.

Oh, and I bought a banana for $.22.

Cooking a steak takes about 10 minutes.

Microwaving a TV dinner ($7.50) takes more time.
