I dont know how you afford a whole chicken.

my diets really ON A BUDGET!!!!

rice, tuna, beans, eggs (mostly whites), jar of peanut butter, skim milk.

and when i feel like going high class lol. i turn to lamb / chicken which is like once/twice a week

i buy whole chickens cheap. $2 for a 2.2lbs of whole chicken.
Keep in mind WHOLE chicken.
My wife loves me and skins - cuts - and bakes it for me.

1.) Costco or SAMs membership! "Ex: 6 dozen eggs ~$5, gallon of whites for ~$7"

2.) Buy whole cuts of meat and cut them yourself.

3.) Bulk bags of grains

4.) Look for sales on meat at every store in town. ( ex: I got sirloin steak the other day at costco for $2.99/lb already sliced)

5.) If you live close to/in a rurual area "Go hunting"

As for whole chicken vs. Tuna, Chicken is much cheaper. Tuna is getting expensive. Add up what a pound of drained canned tuna will cost you now days.

Bagels are cheap and they pack a punch!!

Costco - whole chickens are like $5.

Dude, you're lucky as HELL that your wife takes care of it for you! I love those chickens but hardly ever buy them because they're too much of a pain in the @ss to cut up, messy, etc.

Your making this whole chicken thing harder than it is. You can do it 2 ways that are very simple to do. 1. Cook the whole chicken then pull it all off the bone at once, put in fridge. 2. Get a good pair of kitchen shears and cut it up. Either on of these methods take less than 2 mins to do and require little kitchen skills.
