26g of protein sure, but also 570 calories. Lean meats are hard to compete with, especially on a cut.

    The person I was replying to didn't mention calories, so I didn't bring it up either. I was just trying to show that they were just talking out of their ass.
    The article is also about protein powder, so we're getting further and further from what this is even about.

    Extra-firm tofu competes with chicken breast for protein per calorie.
