Comments
A can of tuna in salted water costs roughly $0.80 to $1.20 at any Charlotte grocer—Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Kroger, Walmart, ALDI all stock it—and delivers 20 grams of protein in a single serving with zero prep beyond opening. The one-minute claim is honest. It reheats cleanly (or doesn't need to), travels in a lunch box, and scales from a solo snack to a quick protein for pasta, rice, or greens without fuss or technique.
