Why compare one macronutrient like protein? That seems like a way to spin the data to reach the authors prejudices. A better metric would be calories, because that's a better indicator of how much is needed to feed a person. Also it's a little unfair to equate a mouse killed in the field to a cow tortured since birth and then slaughtered and possibly skinned and gutted alive.
