Especially if you eat mindfully rather than stuffing your face to get it over with like many people seem to. I can eat like an Indian even though I'm in the UK: fresh vegetables every day and all the spices you can imagine. Meanwhile many people are still eating barely better than Shackleton's men stuck on the ice for months on end.

It's fascinating to see what people buy in the supermarket and how much it costs them. There is very little fruit and veg in the typical trolley.
"better" is really subjective!
I remind myself of this often, despite living a lower-middle class existence.
There’s always room for hedonic escalation and lifestyle creep, but if all of my needs are covered I’m largely satisfied.
As the saying goes: “He who is not satisfied with that which he has will not be satisfied with that which he hopes to have.”
