I find regular old eggs pretty tasty. With that, grass fed beef, grass fed butter--everybody insists they taste better. I don't. Many go in with the bias that they're probably superior quality, I don't... without a blind taste test, I can't say who's right, really. Or everybody's right, since we're talking about a subjective measure.
The "right" amount of protein--we're not talking about a quality inherent in the food, but more in the consumer, here. Moderation might be key, but what counts as too much or too little is likely fairly individual. Again, the studies looking at nitrogen balance look at what you'd have to have everybody eat, if everybody ate the same amount of protein, to get the people with the highest protein requirement eating enough. If I didn't get clear advantages from eating less than most low carbers advocate, I'd probably rather risk too much protein rather than too little. As is, on my days off, I do tend to eat a bit more protein, when it doesn't matter if I'm a little low energy, and I can always sulk and listen to some James Taylor if I get moody.
