2023 Trommelen study: lifters ate 100g of protein in ONE sitting. Muscle protein synthesis kept climbing and stayed elevated for hours. No 30g ceiling. No wasted protein. So when Panda's double Teriyaki hits you with 80g in one meal for $9.49 — your body uses it. All of it. The "cap" was made up. What actually drives results: total daily protein. Aim for 0.7-1g per lb of bodyweight. A 180lb lifter needs 125-180g. How you split it is a minor detail. This is why the 43g Chick-fil-A Cool Wrap isn't "too much." It's one meal toward your daily number. Two of them and you're basically done for the day at 86g. Stop micro-managing meal distribution. Hit the daily total. Train hard. That's the whole game.
