They left out my favorite (and most protein-packed) vital wheat gluten in seitan form. Also, oddly they left out soy?Brown rice and split green peas are really meh though for protein and it’s odd to include them.100g brown rice contains 3g of protein100g green peas contains 6g of protein100g dry steel cut oats contains 16g of protein100g of cooked chickpeas/garbanzo beans contains 9g of protein100g of cooked quinoa contains 4g of protein100g extra firm tofu contains 10g of protein100g of vital wheat gluten contains 75g of proteinIf you can float the upfront cost / split it with friends, I haven’t found a cheaper protein source than this. Also this brand is tasty.However the current price is higher than I paid (incl shipping $94.98), so consider using camelcamelcamel and see if it goes down again. These huge bags last fooorever, even when you love megagarlic baked seitan like I do. Bought my bag a year ago and still have plenty left.As a comparison:100g of hard boiled chicken egg contains 13g of protein100g of chicken breast contains 33g of protein100g of lean grass-fed strip steak contains 23g of proteinPeople look at me funny when I tell them that vital wheat gluten is an important part of my diet, but hopefully these numbers make it clearer. My math: $95 for 50 lbs., 1lb = 454g. $95 for 22,700 grams of vital wheat gluten = $95 for 17,461 grams of protein = $1 per 184 grams of protein.Comparison with a randomly chosen whey protein body building powder:$70 for 5lbs, 5lbs contains 70 servings. Each serving contains 22g of protein. $1 per 22 grams of protein. -- source link
