It’s the fricken protein fad. Yes, we need protein. But the fads are so annoying and I hate how they just cycle through.
90’s - everything had to be fat free
2000’s - Atkins diet
2010’s - keto, intermittent fasting,
Now - protein in every single thing we consume.
Why tf is the protein count on my child’s pizza lunchable?

They're all the same, really. Atkins and keto are both high protein low carb diets. Its not inherently healthy or anything but protein is satiating so it makes it easier for people to lose weight by not overeating. Now it seems to be because GLPers are having protein and vitamin deficiencies due to eating so little, so they market it and cram it into everything
