This fall at the one (Thai) restaurant where I work now, a customer was deciding between entrees, and she vocally decided against one “because I need more protein”!
It seems to me that counting daily grams of protein must be a new dietary trend – I started taking daily protein powder, after all, since my one (newer) (taller) (Thai) coworker took me aside as a friend and said that I wasn’t getting enough.
I mean, I’ve seen like bodybuilder-type people count protein for a while, including a visiting (Puerto Rican) (STEM) graduate student who came into the restaurant and asked me to load up his miso soup with tofu bits so he could get his daily grams in.
But, this is different, it’s like extending out into normal people who aren’t on strict daily regimens to radically increase their muscle mass.
I’ll say one thing, though – it’s a hell of a lot more tolerable than that pseudoscientific anti-gluten shit that’s been going around.
Those people are just weird and picky and inconsistent and annoying.
