lets see now...
pack of 4 chicken breasts say costs £5, plus like say an hour prep and cooking time for ALL of the chicken breasts together, so we'll say (seeing i'm a student so low paid anyway right now) i could earn £5 instead, so we'll call it £10, each 1 has 40g of protein so each chicken breast i eat in real terms cost me: £2.50
now lets compare to a protein supplement, such as ON 100% whey, costs like £30 say for a 5lb tub, out of that tub you get 30 x 40g servings (its a lot more i think, but we'll say 30 for arguments sake!), no cooking time and minimal prep time so per-serving in real terms each 40g serving costs roughly: £1.00
so the chicken is 2.5 times or 250% more expensive than the whey shake
i'm not sayin don't eat chicken i'm saying for those that are on tight budgets and don't have time to cook their money is better spent on a good whey supplement!
peace
