I can go out and buy a Bahn Mi for $10AUD which includes fresh bread baked that morning, fresh vegetables and grilled chicken. It's basically impossible to match this without doing it all from scratch and baking your own bread/grilling your own chicken. At which point you have to produce like 20 in a single go to match the value of the one I can buy pre made.

Then Australia is incredible expensive

I can get the same dish in Canada for 8 AUD and can cook for less than half the money, and Canada is not a cheap country

We also have minimum wages, social safety nets, and broadly a high standard of living on most metrics compared to North America.
