Reply to comment by peter303_ in I analyzed 11000 products of a Dutch supermarket to find the cheapest sources of protein [OC] by MemeableData

Not by weight, by calorie. Plus I'm not sure that's true. It doesn't have nearly any carbs and will usually have near even grams of fat to protein, like 5g of fat and 6g of protein. Since there are 9 calories per gram of fat and 4 calories per gram of protein that means of the about 70 calories 35% of them are protein.

But yes, an egg will have 6-8g of protein so to get 100g you'd need to eat over a dozen.
