Noodles: 3-8RMB
Naan Bread: 1 RMB
Chocolate Bar (Turkish): 1 RMB

Chocolate Bar (Chinese): 5 RMB

All prices in RMB, locally called quai with tenth divisions known as mao. Mao aren’t used that much anymore though.

For current RMB value you can check with XE.com’s currency converter.
At the time of writing 1RMB=0.123787 USD or 0.178299 NZD or 14.6962 JPY.

With the RMB set to rise in value over the next few months inflation could be a cause for concern.
