Plant proteins vary widely. Where do foxnuts stand?
At roughly 9.7g protein per 100g, makhana outperforms rice and most puffed snack bases, and holds its own against many grains. Combine it with millets — as our pasta and noodles do — and the amino-acid profile broadens further.
For vegetarians looking to close the protein gap without powders, makhana-plus-millet foods are a genuinely practical route: our pasta reaches 13.76g protein per 100g.
