Why protein-maxxing is not exactly new, and more | Engagement Party
From PopTarts to soda, food brands are adding protein to almost everything, and people are going to gross lengths online to get enough of it, from the stars of the Netflix show “Love is Blind” to the internet “boy kibble” creators. But can protein be…MAGA-coded? And does fiber have what it takes to become the internet’s new favorite food trend? Plus, Alan Cumming calls for an end to “slop bowls,” and what’s really behind musicians like the Pussycat Dolls canceling their tours this summer.
