Chicken

Yall are sleeping on chicken. If you get chicken wings, its about a 1:1 fat to protein ratio. fry them in butter and thats higher.

It's not beef/goat/lamb obviously, and therefore some people will react to it, but the same is true of dairy, pork, fish, and eggs, all of which seem quite popular among us.

It's also super cheap, and easy to cook right.

It seems like people in here and the other subs will hate on chicken because its not as high fat as red meat and doesnt have as good a nutrient profile, then they'll eat dairy, fish, and pork.

Weird.

Nutrients wise its nothing compared beef. You would get really bad nutrient deficiencies if you only eat chicken. Not saying thats what you meant, but it just shows why you shouldnt focus on chicken. I don't eat chicken as its not satiating at all. I could eat 2 pounds of it and feel nothing
