An egg contains about 13g of protein, a chicken breast about 31g and a portion of salmon about 20g.


Please tell me this is a typo! That would need to be one HUGE egg to have 13 g protein, since a large egg only has 7 g protein.

How much protein the chicken breast and the "portion of salmon" have - well, it depends on the size of the chicken breast and portion of salmon.

In general, animal sources of protein (meats, eggs, cheese) have an average of 6-7 grams of protein per oz. (Milk, cream, and cream cheese are notable exceptions, with significantly smaller amounts per oz)
