Her post quickly gained traction, with netizens jumping in to share their own experiences and opinions on whether RM5 was a reasonable price for such a simple meal.

Some netizens were shocked by the price and felt it was far too high for such a basic meal.

“RM5 is not reasonable, should be RM3.50.”

“Used to dabao like this in Kota Damansara, cost me about RM3.”

However, some argued that the price was fair given the current economic situation.

“Yeah… reasonable… I also guessed RM5.”

“Standard price if you break it down. Veggie for RM3 and RM2 for the rice.”
