9568821089 | high quality proteins: provides enough of all | essential amino acids | 28 | |
9568830364 | high quality proteins: quality is influenced by | amino acid composition and digestibility | 29 | |
9568847258 | limiting amino acids | an essential amino acid that is present in dietary protein in an insufficient amount, thereby limiting the body's ability to build protein | 30 | |
9568873742 | vegan diets: certain breads | that glossy top comes from egg wash, while dough's can sneak in honey, egg yolks, even protein from poultry feathers | 31 | |
9568890401 | vegan diets: condiments, dresssings, sauces | anchovies in Worcestershire sauce, eggs om mayo, dairy in ranch dressing, cheese in store bought pesto | 32 | |
9568898726 | vegan diets: sugars | the process to make refined white sugar involves animal bone char--definitely not vegan. | 33 | |
9568915631 | vegan diets: deep-dried foods | your onion rings could be dredged in an eggy batter or fried in animal fat | 34 | |
9568929012 | vegan diets: gummy candies, jell-O, marshmallows | these sticky sweets most often get their chewy, jiggly texture from gelatin | 35 | |
9568939128 | vegan diets: food//drinks with red coloring | that bright red "natural" color comes from the extract of crushed and boiled beetles. Can't make this stuff up. | 36 | |
9568951678 | vegan diets: roasted salted peanuts | gelatin (protein from the tendons or cows or pigs) is used to help the salt stick to the peanuts | 37 | |
