Does peanut butter contain protein?
No, peanut butter is not a protein, but it is made of proteins (and other types of molecules). The question is somewhat like asking whether a car is a tire.

Peanut butter is made by mashing up peanuts, and peanuts are predominantly made of protein, fats, carbohydrates, and water. Cars are made by, well, you get the point... All that said, if you are asking whether peanut butter contains lots of protein, then that's another matter altogether.

A similar question would be whether peanut butter is a good source of protein. The answer might be of particular value to vegetarians and the like, whose predominant source of protein is from non-meat food items. While peanut butter arguably contains a relatively high amount of protein, some might consider it a poor protein source. Some argue that to consume enough peanut butter to satisfy one's recommended protein intake would require the consumption of a large amount of fat (since in addition to containing lots of protein, peanuts also contain lots of fat). Like most foods, moderation is key.
