    I am 68, on low income and I must have 120gm protein daily to live - These sticks give me a lot of protein at a low price. :D
    Bearing in mind my age and state of health, I am not bothered how much salt I ingest.:eek:

    Have you tried baked beans or lentils?

    Beans and pulses are very high in protein and baked beans are also one of your *five a day*.

    What about cheese? A meal with beans or pulses with some grated cheese would probably hit your requirement.
