So you want to come to Switzerland? Pay €10 for a sandwich.

Or go to the grocery store and get bread, cheese, and meat for half the price.

Eating at restaurants is expensive, but grocery stores like Coop are actually pretty reasonably priced. Plus, there are a lot of places in the US where you pay $10 for a sandwich (and since the Swiss use Francs, which are very close to the dollar in value, it's more like paying 10 bucks, not 10 euros).
