Went to vegan restaurant w/ friend & don't understand the ins & outs. Where's the protein?

[jaxs mom]

Soy, rice, legumes and grains all provide protein ( along with a ton of carbs)

Nuts

I know @sidsmom. Just the other day one of my friends asked me "How is possible for you to be alive if you don't eat meat? "

I wish I knew of a vegan restaurant in the area that I live in (one of Chicago's NW suburbs) I've completely stopped eating out because most restaurants only have 1, maybe 2 offerings on their menu for those of us who choose not to eat animal protein, I got tired of having to eat the same meal pretty much every time I ate out.

Tofu and beans

Just do a google search on plant proteins.  I'm vegan and there are many vegetables that have protein in them.

@sidsmomWay too many times!  I just say same place animals do--from plants!  By the way. have you seen What the Health on Netflix?  Excellent documentary, and it actually influenced two friends to go WFPB, who were previously semi vegetarian.
