After completing the table below discuss in paragraph form: were the poultry products lower in fat grams per serving than red meats? Did breaded products contain the most fat grams per serving? What percentage of lunchmeats were fat?
- Determine what plant sources of protein are available. Complete the table with food product brand/type, sources of plant protein , and approximate cost per unit.
