chicken leg vs tuna

USDA Nutrient Database Nutrition Information:

leg, meat only, raw (100g)
Energy ..............120
Protein ..............g 20.13
Total lipid (fat).... g 3.81
Carbohydrate .... g 0

tuna, light, canned in water, drained solids (100g)
Energy ................ 116
Protein ............... g 25.51
Total lipid (fat)..... g 0.82
Carbohydrate ..... g 0.00

I chose chicken leg because it is so cheap (pricewise) to purchase, and so is tuna.
Plus, chicken leg is good for protein (didnt know that until i checked the stats), more fat but IT TASTES GREAT!
You can take 2 at once.... 40g protein

Need yr advice, good idea, bad idea?

i donno why....without any scientific reason....i always tend to prefer chicken or red meat over tuna. i donno why....so yes my choice would be chicken. n on the other hands tuna's taste is horrible (eventhough now i've got used to it) .. so yes i would prefer chicken

Do you have tuna in your diet?
I want tuna-less diet if possible.

but yeah if u really wanna avoid fat.....then take tuna as normally this stuff has alot of sat fat. here its not alot...so oh well..it depends :P chicken preffered though!

**Awais** · 01-10-2002, 01:49 AM

i do have tuna in my diet buddy...i am on a cut up diet n so yeah tuna is the best lean source of protein i guess.
add a lil fat free mayo, or a few drops of ketchup in it n thats it.

yeah chicken tastes a lot better than tuna. but tuna is more conveniet because of it coming in a can. canned chicken tastes like shizznittt

yes it is convenient ... agreed

**seanconnery** · 01-10-2002, 05:19 AM

what on EARTH are you talking about? Tuna is GOOD!

**joehagyHH** · 01-10-2002, 08:19 AM

it all depends on preference.... both have their plus and minuses when compared to eachother. i for one am allergic to seafood, so i cant eat tuna.

**BiG RED HH** · 01-10-2002, 12:33 PM

Any cooked once living creature will do.

**Cole911** · 01-10-2002, 12:39 PM

yes to chicken leg (grilled only)
i buy all my chicken at the start of my week and grill (lightly seasoned)it all up at onetime
then bag and freeze the rest for easy access for later - its clean and holds no odor - and can be easily eaten straight up with now extra cals added (mayo, katchup. etc.)

no to tuna
to much tuna will make your **** smell like bad P***Y- makes for in embarrassing situation when visiting friend and family it hold odor (meaning it will make your kitchen and bowls smell) got to take that trash out right away - and pray and hope none of the oils or juice gets on you or your clothes - plus with tuna you a more tempted to add extra cal (mayo, katchup. etc.) which would likely make the tuna made with mayo waaay worse then the chicken lightly seasoned and grilled

I'm allergic to ssalmon and other fish so I've never really tried tuna. I wish I could though it looks good. I love rotisserie chicken though. It's all I eat.

**TomBerry** · 12-11-2010, 07:16 AM

both a beast, I stick to breast though

chicken = cheap + nice taste

tuna = so convenient

theres the whole to much mercury in tuna thing though

**chadnasci** · 12-11-2010, 08:16 AM

It's pretty simple- if you don't like tuna, don't it eat. There are plenty of other ways to get to your macronutrient marks without having to eat food you absolutely hate

If you ever get the chance to fish for it, do it, and sell the tuna fillets to friends. There is no workout like a fighting tuna 100 miles offshore.
