Yes! I have seen this a lot in the US. Some overweight guy/gal will proclaim "I need some protein right now" (no idea on what this determination is based on) or ask me (vegetarian) "where do you get your protein?".
- ravenstine 8y agoI've seen cereal boxes that say "good source of protein", and I feel like the sports bars section has a new brand of protein cookie or brownie every time I walk by it. Like yeah, you'll get diabeetus, but you'll have your protein!
- kieckerjan 8y agoIs it me or are Americans are more protein-minded than Europeans? Americans talking about health and food will often bring up protein in the first sentence, whereas a European (at least here in the Netherlands) more often will talk about fats, antioxidants, fibers. Protein is almost an afterthought. This is pure anecdotal evidence of course.
