Answer to Question 1

If a person does not include meat in their diet, a majority of their protein intake will be based on plant-source foods. However, they may include other animal-source food items, such as eggs and dairy. Plant-source foods yield incomplete proteins (because they are lacking one or more of the essential amino acids). There are two ways to compensate for this deficiency and to achieve a complete protein: 1) by combining a small amount of complete protein (eggs, cheese, dairy) with an incomplete protein (grain product) to form a supplementary protein (ex., fried rice, macaroni and cheese) or, 2) by combining two incomplete proteins (grain plus a legume, such as a peanut butter sandwich) to form a complete protein (complementary protein). Relying on either of these approaches requires the meal planner to pay special attention to food combinations and to make sure children receive sufficient protein for growth. The advantage of relying on plant-source foods is lower cost and reduced fat.
