...not to fall for the theory that fast food is cheaper than what you can purchase at a grocery store.

I'd never heard of that "theory." It flies in the face of all logic.

It’s not out of the question. Plenty of frozen pizzas and frozen entrees and cans of soup for example cost more per calorie than a lot of things off the “Dollar Menu”.

I have seen the belief that fast food is cheaper than food you prepare yourself expressed many times. Usually, it is a lead-in to bash fast-food places and blaming McDonald's for obesity.

The assertion is ridiculous, IMO. You can spend a lot less on food by making it yourself. I made a pizza from scratch last night, it was delicious.
