But I loved it. Also this has Shrimp removed, because it was on the OG chart due to an error and this is an updated version.

I'm calling BS on tuna being more expensive than chix wings...depends on grade of tuna. Wings are expensive AF!

Idk what their source was but I think you should look for cheapest "possible" to do a fair comparison (cause obviously a certain shop can have super expensive wings). Near me lowest for wings will be 3-5€/kg, canned tuna starts from 8/kg when on discount, but also has like 30% of seed or olive oil in it (so actual tuna cost to the consumer is more like 12€/kg minimum) Chicken is definitely cheaper everywhere IME.

BTW I'm talking raw chicken wings..everything pre-cooked costs more
