I wouldn't say it's impossible, but ive never seen chicken with anywhere near that much protein.

It's from Sainsbury's and we normaly get it in the big packs which come in a plastic bag style container. Each breast inside the pack is in it's own little plastic sleave. Fancy chicken  .
It was 32g of protein per 100g and about 42g of protein per breast (130g ish).
As far as I know this was the raw value.
are they breaded or anything?
32g raw weight is impossible im afraid
I eat the same sainsburys chicken, 32g raw per 100g it says.
Why is it impossible?
co no RAW chicken has that much protein per 100g AFAIK even if they are not pumped with water like other breast, i stand open to correction?

does more expensive chicken contain more protein? ie free range chicken which has had a longer time to grow rather than cheap quick grown chickens?
EDIT: iv just checked my smart price chicken and it says 32gms protein per 100g

more expensive chicken may contain less water thus the % protein of the cooked weight is closer to the raw weight than for cheaper chicken oftem pumped with water weight as per my example previously
32g/100 raw IMO unlikely

From the Sainsburys web-site.
Jack is correct.
but are sainsburys correct?
It must be a cooked weight they are giving IMO

Just going by what the label says(ya debateable on labels accuracys) but since no one here a calorie bomber we're all talking labels right.
Nutridata disagrees http://www.nutritiondata.com/facts-C00001-01c20BJ.html but im not sure what "broilers" is but 24 vs 32 is a difference of 8grams or 25~% ish and i thought they had to be within 20% by law?.

Do you think Sainsburys are lying then?
it doesnt say if its is raw or cooked so i think it is misleading

The American word for grill as far as I know, so it would be referring to grilled chicken.
