Best vs. worst sources of protein, based on how bio-available and complete they are.
Metric used is PDCAAS, bc author says databases he used were limited. Yet DIAAS metric is considered superior and would show even greater disparity between animal vs. plant proteins. These findings are consistent with a large body of literature on this topic.

Today, I sent a letter with my colleagues from the @NYSenate Agriculture Committee, calling on our federal representatives to bring whole milk and 2% back into school cafeterias through the 2023 Federal Farm Bill.
Read our full letter below:
Feb. 2: @US_FDA withdrawing long-standing policy that classifies animal feed ingredients as animal drugs if making claims on production, environment, or food-safety related benefits. This will streamline process of getting feed additives to U.S. markets.👇

Study shows that kids in schools threw out (wasted) plant-based entrees "more than all other entrees served during lunch."
Maybe kids don't like plants bc these foods are relatively nutrient-poor and contain much less usable protein, compared to dairy, meat, eggs.

Thanks to @SenatorHinchey@DonnaLupardo@SenatorBorrello & @chrisWCtague for a supportive letter to @SenSchumer & @SenGillibrand asking for their help to move the bipartisan Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act in the Senate, giving school districts more milk options in school meals.
NYFB's statement on NYS Legislature passing a neonicotinoid treated seed and pesticide ban. The Assembly passed the bill this evening following Senate passage earlier this week.
