    Sick and Tired of Tuna

    Ive been eating canned tuna packed in water for the last couple years. I feel as though its the cheapest and best source of protein, but im starting to worry about the whole mercury thing.I eat Tuna every day, about 6-9times a day.(and since im going to school this week i dont wanna carry containers full of tuna every day) any help would be appreciated

    Is this healthy?
    Do u guys know of any other good and cheap protein sources?

    6-9 times a day? wow! I can only stand about 2 tins a day. The rest of my protein comes from turkey breasts and egg whites

    Usually purchasing a big bag of chicken breasts isn't that much. Cook them the night before ready to take the next day. Eggs are cheap too.

    Egg Whites definitely cheap and IMO lots of versatility.

    I quit eating tuna a few months ago. I am SO sick of it. Over the hoidays, I bought a few whole turkeys, roasted them and cut them up. I wish whole turkeys would be more available other than the holidays.

    I also buy whole hams and do the same thing. Only thing, alot of sodium, but I drink tons of water.
