Fats vs. Proteins

Classifying macro nutrients can be tricky! Fats. Carbs. Proteins.
What makes a food a source of fat versus a source of a protein? Next time you go to the grocery store start reading the labels. If the fat content is higher than the protein content, it is considered a source of fat. Ideally, the protein content should be significantly higher than the fat to be a good source of protein for your diet. 
 
Let's check out these two labels from chicken sausage:
Fat: 3 grams / Protein: 15 grams

 The fat to protein ratio is very close on this, option 1 is the best way to go!

Fat: 12 grams / Protein: 13 grams
