I disagree on the “if you’re poor”. I find eating healthy cheaper.
You can prepare healthy meals from basic and cheap foodstuffs like vegetables, whole grains and legumes, eggs, low cost meat cuts etc. You can prepare delicious meals for under $1 each.
Buying prepared unhealthy foods is what is expensive.

Being poor is very expensive.

If you have the time and resources to do so.
And also are located near a grocery store with those kinds of cheap prices.
Many poor people literally do not live near a grocery store, the only place they can get foodstuff is a convenience store. Those always have high markups
