FAQ

How accurate are the Soriana prices in Mexico?

Prices are 2026-Q2 quarterly averages (chain weekly flyers + government food price index + manual spot-checks). Real prices vary by week, region, and promotion. Verify with your receipt before betting on these numbers. If a price looks wildly off, ping us via Contact — we refresh quarterly.

What's the cost per 1 gram of protein for Tacos al Pastor?

The result card auto-shows "Cost / 1 g protein". When it's under the fitness threshold in MXN, a violet "MACRO HERO" badge appears. Same Tacos al Pastor can swing dramatically in protein efficiency when you switch supermarkets or countries (e.g., imported vs domestic protein).

Why does Tacos al Pastor cost so differently across countries?

Supply distance, local labor cost, VAT, food subsidies, exchange rates, minimum wage, and supermarket margins all stack up. The 'Compare' tab puts two countries side-by-side so you can spot which ingredient drives the gap.

Is cooking actually cheaper than delivery in Mexico?

Average Tacos al Pastor delivery in Mexico runs around MXN 180. Cooking typically saves 50-70%, but that excludes your time and dish-washing. If the verdict shouts "financial disaster," ordering may genuinely be the rational choice.
