most meals are made to have 20-30g of protein.
Let’s have western meal of one day
Breakfast
2 eggs = 12g
Two slice bread 3g
First meal
Pizza 30g
Or
Burger 30g
Or
Fisch 40g
With sidedish potatoes 3g more
Same for the second meal.
So those are around 70-90g of protein.
So this is enough for most people. But are most people eating that much? I don’t know. But I know people who can barely scrap money for food…..
- InSteady 3y agoThe other aspect is in general people who are strapped for cash also tend to be strapped for time, and the vast majority of junk food and quick premade meals don't have nearly enough protein in them for all the calories they contain. Very easy to end up overloading on low quality carbs and fats while skimping on protein and healthier sources of the former. As a rule the healthier stuff tends to be more expensive and less easily accessible to the busy/poor/stressed consumer (since a proper diet almost always includes a lot of cooking from scratch).
