Tho I must admit that I would never get that close to the surface with my bare hands while doing this.

          Yes, you can. Lettuce has around 2 gramm per 100. Apples 0.3

          As comparison beef has 26.

          So while lettuce has much less, saying you can’t get proteins from it is just plain wrong.

            Both lettuce and apples are incomplete sources of protein and could not sustain a healthy diet.

            Fish is a complete source of protein.
