    You’d need ~1.2kg of beans for that

    That’s 3 cans, where I live that costs a lot more than 400g of chicken. And it would suck to eat that much beans.

      400g of chicken costs €4,90 here.

      Canned kidney beans would be €3,25 for 1,25kgs, dried it would only cost you €2,90.

      Don’t know how crazy US meat subsidies are, but here it’s definitely still cheaper to get protein from plants 🤷🏼

      Edit: Dried chickpeas are just €2,- for the same amount of protein, weird. And those are the organic ones, probably still way cheaper in bulk.
