please tell me this is a joke. Peanut butter is not a good source of protein. [/quote]

It is the same amount of protein as two eggs.[/quote]

It’s only 8grams but you get a ton more calories and fat too.[/quote]

On wheat bread yes is about 12 grams of protein.

Check your eating disorder hon. [/quote]

3 snickers bars is the same amount of protein as 2 eggs.

I don't think saying peanut butter is a ton more fat and calories is disordered. (was not the one who posted that) If you just want protein and do not care about anything else then sure eat a tub of peanut butter or a million snickers bars or like my son says oreos becuse you get 1 g or protein in 2 cookies.

Main point is that things that are considered good protein sources tend to have a high ratio of protein to calories. Good way to evaluate a good/high protein source is to take the g or protein x 10. This number should be equal to or very close to the total calories. If it's significantly lower, Peanut butter (8 g protein in 190 cal) is 80 to 190. Then while that food has protein it is not really a good or high protein source. Again if you just want protein and don't care about calories then go for the peanut butter but if you were to get all your daily protein from peanut butter it would take 2400 cal of PB ot get 100 g or protein.
