Right, but someone who goes to Paris spends what, maybe 20-40 Euro for a
ticket to the Louvre and a meal there?

I'm atypical. Last time I visited, I knew I would only spend a few
hours, so went on a Wednesday after 6pm- that was 6 euro IIRC...

and it's free on the first Sunday in the month.

I know, but I wasn't there then!

No matter what you eat in the Louvre cafeteria, it's horrid.

Taking their own sandwiches like the Dutch do, doesn't improve the food

I tend not to eat in gallery cafes/restaurants (though some are not so
bad IME) but I recommend the one attached to Valencia's modern art
museum. It is accessible from the street (so not reliant on a captive
audience) which might explain it- anyway, it was very good indeed. And
non-smoking, which was an added plus in a city where so _many_
restaurants put you off your food by making smoking compulsory.

If you've been before, you don't have to spend a long time.

But others may want to spend the better part of a day, in which case
eating on the premises is likely.
