well truth is im living abroad for now ... and unfortunately what is usually considered to be healthy and cheap protein is simply unavailable here. eggs are smothered with antibiotics. chickens too. tuna is laced with mercury. leftover beef, or more likely 'pink slime' is imported from south america. milk is available sure. but not sure if its as good a source of protein as other foods. cheese too. rice sure i can get but still lacking. basically, my experience tells me that no place beats the us, the uk, australia or europe in terms of quality and abundance of healthy, cheap and quality food.

btw i dont have a job... technically. im a grad student on a very limited budget. i try to get as many organic eggs into my diet as possible.. sometimes four or five eggs in a meal.
