Help! Workout nutrition question

Is protein from turkey breast meat better compared protein whey powder?
In my county a 2.3kg whey protein cost about 80USD about 8$ per 100g which contains roughly 90g of proteins, about 0.089$ per gram of protein.
When a 1kg of turkey breast meat cost about 6$ which makes it 0.6$ per 100g that contains 29g of protein, that means 0.02$ per gram of protein.

I'm 65kg building muscle, I need about 110g of protein per day,
If I take it through whey protein then it's about 9.8$ (122.2 grams of whey powder)
When if I take if through turkey meat it get about 2.2$ (380 grams of turkey meat)
Logically turkey meat is natural and cost less, but is it right? is it better than whey protein powder?

@hawkangel if whole foods are significantly cheaper i would probably just pick them 9 times out of 10. no harm in whey if you find it convenient or you really struggle with appetite if you are getting decent micro nutrient intake

@mommajulesberry You re right, whole food is the way to go for me then. Thanks for your help

@hawkangel Either will work. Protein powder costs more because it's a convenience item. If you can hit your intake goal without it, you don't need it.

@adviceplease Mostly I can reach my protein intake daily goal through meals without the supplements. I think I'm gonna keep it that way maybe add some creatine to it thats all. Thanks for the help.

@hawkangel Don’t take 4 scoops of protein a day though. That’s way too much synthetic protein
