It's this way in America too if you cook from scratch. People often think fast food is cheaper because they're buying pre-made/frozen stuff at the grocery store, or they just don't know how to plan properly.

I meal plan around sale items and spend an average of $120/week for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for two adults. That's less than $3/meal.
