My boring choices would be Chinese takeaway and fresh KFC. The Chinese takeaway near me is delicious, and does great portions, but you're looking at at least £10 to £15 per person if you're not sharing. It's not a massive amount of money, but if you want to try a few dishes, it quickly racks up the cost.
The KFC is bog standard, but it's just far enough away that the food cools down by the time it gets to my house. This is more of a more money equals more time situation, so I'd have more time to go to the restaurant and eat it right there while it's hot.
A few people mentioned beef jerky. I'd like to try some of the different types and flavours. I've only really seen the one brand here, and they sell Teriyaki and spicy. Spicy just means that they've dumped enough spice on it to mask any other taste. I'd like to see what the other options are like.
Same with some of the other suggestions here, like swordfish. I'd love to try some of the more unusual foods, without going down the gimmicky route and eating things like rotten fish, or live octopus.
