      Looking at healthline.com (I don’t know if they’re actually reputable, but we’re just looking at servings and prices, so why not) we see the pea protein powders cost between $0.47-$2.84 per 28 grams (which is about one serving for the 3 powders I looked at) and whey protein powders cost between $0.78-$7.27 per serving.

      One of the websites they link sells both a protein and whey option, both at the same price. I’m not sure that cost is really a factor for deciding between the two.

      Not to mention all the heavy metals that plants extract to grow and then we concentrate that in one place means that the lead concentration is out of safe daily levels for most servings of plant protein…
