🤣🤣🤣 Its a public forum. You were discussing it with the internet. It was a simple clarification, but you're so immature it got you all butthurt. Even chatgpt and Gemini both agree that your statement was implying the Thai label was the issue.

@Jonathan *******

"Often" and "you have to look carefully" in no way clarifies that you were not implying that was the issue here the way you think it does. Perhaps you did not mean to imply that, but it does. No need to get all butthurt and defensive just because I clarified it wasn't the issue in this case.

@Jonathan *******

yes, i understood that. It seemed as though you were implying that was the issue here, which I simply clarified was not.

Almost anything marketed and labeled as high protein, with exceptions of course, is usually not all that high in protein compared to many alternatives. Typically more expensive and loaded with sugars and other unhealthy crap as well.

@Jonathan *******

the Thai label is correct. It's the english labeling that is deceptive. Yes, it is correct in saying 15g of protein per 100g but that is equal to 3 servings. Which is 3 packages. Perhaps this is made in the UK, which Steve says is standard there. In the US it would definitely be grams of protein per serving and this would be considered deceptive.

@James *****

yes. I use wise to transfer to my Thai bank account to meet the visa financial requirement. Other than that I withdraw from the ATM with my Schwab card which gives a decent rate and reimburses the 220 baht fee. Cost is almost equal between wise and my card.

@Elías *******

yes, i know border bounces are not a visa. The DTV is fairly knew. Not sure how many people are on that now, but prior to that most visas have a financial requirement in a thai bank. So I think the whole living here without a Thai bank account was much less common. It also used to be super easy to get one, even in visa exempt.

@Elías *******

what visa are you living here with? If it's just border bounces you won't be able to get away with that for very long.

@James *****

do you live here? What kind of visa do you have that doesn't require money in a thai account? I know it's possible, just not common.
