Beans, rice, eggs and oats are cheaper, healthier and quicker than Mcdonalds. (Rice is not quicker). If McDonals were the only choice they wouldn't be spending millions on advertising.

They're also more emotionally taxing to create, and come with several externalities that aren't baked in to the price of the dollar menu:
* dish washing (do they even have dishes?)
* power usage of stove
* time to clean up
* a singular, large lump of time to go out and buy all those food
* the necessary mental spoons to plan those numerous meals each week
* a refridgerator that works (mine is currently broken, for example)
* a willingness to accept the cost of losing a lot of food when the fridge inevitably breaks
And so on

Other than eggs, and this is in the US not all countries, you don't need a refrigerator for the listed items. Beans, rice, and oats do not require refrigeration. Many fruits and vegetables also don't need refrigeration [0]. * a willingness to accept the cost of losing a lot of food when the fridge inevitably breaks
This is mitigated by learning what does and does not need to be refrigerated and storing things properly.[0] https://extension.purdue.edu/foodlink/includes/pubs/Storing%...
