Tegal chicken luncheon

[greemah]

I use fitday.com for tracking calories, and any luncheon slices I see on there which could be similar to Tegal chicken luncheon that I get at the deli in the supermarket are around 53cal (3.1g fat, 1.2g carb, 5g protein).

Can anyone varify if this would be close to the real macros?

Thanks

I hope you don't think chicken luncheon is a good source of protein - 50% fat, pumped full of water and god knows what else. Not something to be consumed on a regular basis.

Mmmm that's some mighty tasty chicken - 47.7% fat. Where do they get chicken that's 47% fat?

1725mg of sodium = 4.2g of table salt per 18g of protein = anybody want to say water retention, you don't want to be eating too much of that.

That's the bits of chook they blast off the bone with high-pressure water jets... (called 'mechanically-recovered meat') - i.e. the bits no normal person would bother with!

what everyone else has said + ITS NOT REAL FOOD!!!!! :doh:

Don't go near that compressed crap, it's all the left over meat, bone, grissle, you name it. They put it all through a mincer, compress it and then have the cheek to call it meat.

crap i thought it was a good source of protein for such low cals. anyone know any foods that are similar macros (very low cal/carb with high protein) that are easy to take to an office job and snack without cooking/heating (i have fridge access though)

Cook a couple chicken breasts the night before then slice them up for sandwiches or just rip it into pieces and eat it over your keyboard like I do.

:nod: Yup, be more prepared. Most things 'convenient' are going to be full of shit you don't want to be eating.

Being able to eat the right foods during the day - that suits your job / place of work - will require spending a bit of time each night preparing the next days food.

There's no other way out of it - trust me.
