I'd guess that 60% of the lettuce wouldn't make it into sandwiches at all, raising the per sandwich lettuce price to 5¢ |
Adding tomatoes to a sandwich turned out to be surprisingly expensive. |
33.8 grams at $2.99 per pound makes for a 22¢ serving. Substituting ketchup is still a bad idea. |
Finally, some processed sandwich meat. This Oscar Mayer Turkey was $2.99 for 16 slices or 18.5¢ cents per slice. Oscar Mayer Beef bologna was a little more, $3.84 per pound or 24¢ per slice. |
And there you are! Bread + Mayo + Mustard + Cheese + Lettuce + Tomato + Turkey + Mayo + Bread = Sandwich and sandwiches cost 95¢!
Or more.
Or less. |
Processed meat and cheese is generally cheaper than deli meat and cheese. One of my favorite sandwich meats is roast beef, but it is expensive at about $8.99 per pound. |
For example this 1.7 ounce serving (56 grams) of roast beef was 99¢. |
