Processed foods can vary widely in their protein content. While some processed items, like certain protein bars or meat substitutes, may be high in protein, many others, such as snacks and convenience foods, often contain low levels of protein and may be high in sugars and unhealthy fats. It's important to read labels to determine the specific protein content of a processed food item. Generally, whole foods like meats, legumes, and dairy are more reliable sources of protein.
