For those of you who like quizzes here’s one about proteins. I got an 88%, not because I knew most of the answers but because I guessed right.
I eat very little meat and love fruits and vegetables, and I realized a few months ago I may have been getting too little protein. So recently I’ve been trying to get more. What about you? Are you a protein lover?

I am a vegetarian and depend on fruits, vegetables and dairy products for my protein. I do not feel the necessity to have more protein. I could do with less weight to carry around but I am constrained by my physical limitations.
I assume you also get protein from grains and legumes?
I got 15 of the 17 questions right –88%. We’re twins, Jean. I thought it’s guessing right, but maybe not. Maybe we know more than we give ourselves credit.
Possibly. We might also have a feeling for how people who write quizzes think.
definitely biased quiz
nearly all on-line quizzes are…
you don’t need to eat meat to get protein…and so on…
I don’t think it was saying you have to eat meat to get protein, just that if you don’t eat dairy or eggs you have to be more careful. Over half of my protein comes from nonfat milk.
Yes. For me I feel more satisfied after protein than just fruit and veg. A few days without it and I crave it (and usually eat sugar to compensate).
I also drink milk, eat whole grains and nuts essentially every day. They “stick to the ribs” nicely.
