Comparing Tomodachi Life food prices to real life.

I have been playing Tomodachi Life a lot more lately. While buying some food it got me thinking "how accurate are the prices of the food in this game to real?" So I decided to do some research and find out for myself. I did give myself a few rules though

• The currency needs to be the same (so I'll be looking at prices in the UK, since my copy of Tomodachi Life uses the UK currency "£").
• I will be checking multiple sources (sourcses meaning either shops or/and restaurants), gathering the prices then comparing the highest and lowest prices of the real life food to the price of the Tomodachi Life food.
• Depending on the food, I might have to use a pre-made /microwave food rather than if it was home cooked, since they most likely have all of the components together.
• If its a more outlandish food, I'm not counting post and packaging
• I will do one food from each of the categories in the game. I might do more in the future if anyone is interested.

With that done. Let's get started!

The first food I will be comparing is the cheeseburger, which costs £6 in the game. Since a lot of the sources come from fast food places, I will be using them. The lowest price I found was £1.09 while the highest was £3.49. So compared to real life, the cheeseburgers are overpriced in this game. Is the cheese made of gold or something?

The second food I went for was Caviar since its the most expensive food in the game at a whopping £120! The lowest price I found for Caviar was £49 while the highest was £160. So that is slightly accurate. I guess the game's caviar is of a high quality! Maybe don't buy it anyway...

The third food was the Yule Log, a popular Christmas dish and at £6.50. The lowest price for the Yule log I found was £2 and the highest was £4.99. Slightly overpriced in Tomodachi Life but unlike the cheeseburger, its not too big of a gap.

The last food (well, drink...) was the cappuccino which is £2.90 in Tomodachi Life. From the picture, I'm going to assume that this is a medium beverage. The lowest price was £2.50 and the highest was £2.70. So out of all the foods we went through today, the cappuccino was the closest to the game's price.

So this is what happens when I get back into a game about Miis. Overall though, its interesting seeing how accruate most of these prices are. I might try it with more foods from the game. Thank you for reading and have a good day!
