Your suggested quick food is 5.3g of protein. I'm sure it's more enjoyable to eat than my shake, but it doesn't give me the protein that I want. It's also not something I can take as a little bag of powder and "just add water" to anywhere.
So as the hot chick on the Lil Dicky video says, "apples to oranges".
5.3g per 100g of product, that is 5.3%. It says the serving is 100g but I eat 200-300g for a full meal.
For the whole 600g of product (which is the caloric equivalent of two soylent servings) you have 32g. If you want a higher protein-to-calories ratio, just boil eggs which are even cheaper. In 10-15 minutes one can boil eggs once a week for the whole week.

I recommend the rest of the channel as well.
26% protein, mostly of wheat, which doesn't have a balanced amount of essential amino acids. Also 51% carbs and 10% fat. I wouldn't want that, way too many carbs. Fat is the best energy source for the human body, for so many reasons I wouldn't stop talking about them.
But anyway, split roasted chicken[0] has the same proportion of protein (26%, but the serving is bigger at 65g). It comes with 4 individual bags of 250g of chicken for ~4.65€ (1.16€ each) and one can just heat a bag in the microwave. And it's very well seasoned and delicious.

JimmyJoy shakes are not Soylent shakes.
175g of JimmyJoy = 45g protein. That's hard to beat, especially considering all the other things you get with it.
I had no intention of complaining about cholesterol.
