Never let the truth get in the way of a good headline... Found this as an ad for a vegan website:



Sure, but let's look at something different:

Google tells me there's 2.8g of protein per 100g of broccoli which provides 34 calories. This means 294g of brocolli are needed for 100 calories. Do the maths and those 294g of brocolli are actually 8.23g of protein, not 11.1 as claimed.

Google tells me there's 26g of proteins per 100g of lean beef and 250 calories on this same 100g. So to get those 6.4g of protein we would need to eat only 24g of meat (against 294g of broccoli). This is only 60 calories (which means that you would get more than the claimed 6.4g of protein if you ate 100 calories of beef as per this ad).

Also they used calories... Let's use weight instead. 100g of beef will give you 26g of protein, while 100g of broccoli gives you 2.8g of protein. You would have to eat almost 10 times more broccoli in weight to get the same amount of protein as beef.
