Every food commercial, advertisement, and packaging in the US is currently protein obsessed. I just bought 3 burritos, and the most noticeable thing on the entire package is its protein content. TV commercials about waffles are advertising that they have X amount of protein per serving. The products in my jobsite’s vending machine have protein all over every package.

Did America have a protein thing recently?

    If you’re old and want to slow down how quickly your muscles waste away to maintain your physical health, you need to eat a lot of protein.

    Btw, high protein intake lets you age quickly.
