Multiple other sources state 8g per cooked cup of quinoa. 24 g in an uncooked cup may be accurate but this is not an amount you could eat at one sitting. If I make a cup of uncooked quinoa for dinner for our family of three, we each eat a good amount and then have leftovers for cereal in the morning! saying there is 24 g of protein in a cup of quinoa is misleading.

Even for non-vegan/vegetarians, information like this on otherwise under-the-radar foods like this can be a huge help in managing diet. As a fitness enthusiast, I expend over 4000kcal/day running, lifting, and playing sports, so a new source of protein that isn't filled with saturated fats, doesn't taste like rotten ass (pure whey isolates&hydrolates), and isn't chicken is pretty exciting for me! Thanks for letting me eke out a new dietary tool! I really enjoyed the article!
