    That was not the point and you know it. And of course you would have to add more vegetables to get a full set of all essential amino acids. But the statement “you can’t get proteins from lettuce” remains wrong. You absolutely can.

      Protein is protein and if this is where someone needs to get it, then this is what it will be

      It is the point, if fish is what someone needs to obtain complete protein then that’s what they’ll do. Lettuce is not a replacement for fish which is what was being implied.

      I understand if you have difficulty following basic comment chains and comprehending comments, with your lack of a balanced diet.
