The Egg and Protein
October 30, 2009
Just pondering…
According to wikipedia, an entire hard boiled chicken egg has 12 grams of protein and other websites say there’s between 6 and 10 depending on the size of the egg.
The thing that has me puzzled is the fact that the label on a jar of mayonaise lists eggs and egg yolks third under ingredients, yet the label–listed under nutritional facts–reads that there’s 0 grams of protein.
I’m wondering how something can be made out of eggs and have no protein…
