    For myself the breakdown of protein powder vs food is as follows;

    Chicken breast;
    $9.88 per 1 KG
    100 grams chicken breast = 23 grams Protein
    $9.88=230 grams protein

    $.04 = 1 gram protein
    OR
    $4.30 = 100 grams protein

    Protein Powder
    $39.99 = 5 lbs protein powder
    30 grams protein powder = 24 grams Protein
    $39.00 = 2268 grams protein powder = 1814 grams protein

    $.02 = 1 gram of protein
    OR
    $2.15 = 100 grams protein


    Essentially chicken breast which is the only meat I eat for protein ends up being exactly (interestingly enough if math does it for you) twice as much as protein powder as a source for protein.
    Yea I would say your paying a pritry penny more for chicken. I also don't just eat chicken. Turkey, red meat I like it all

    smart. I am guessing red meats like steak would also be significantly cheaper per gram of protein as well. Do you find you get too much fat in your diet eating red meat?
