Eggs, Cheese, and Milk. Eggs, cheese and milk are all protein-rich. In fact, like meat, they offer all of the essential amino acids necessary for human health, thus are complete protein foods. One whole egg, 1 cup of milk (skim, 2 percent, or whole), and 1 ounce of most varieties of cheese provide 8 grams of protein.lmonds are particularly protein-rich, providing 6 grams per ounce. Other nuts that provide between 5 and 6 grams of protein per ounce include Brazil nuts, cashew nuts, hazelnuts and walnuts. All whole grains (such as cereal and whole wheat bread) offer some protein, typically around 2 or 3 grams per serving.

1 Zebra mussels get their name from the striped pattern of their shells. 2  However, the pattern varies greatly to where there are no stripes, only dark or light colored shells. 3  Zebra mussels can grow to a maximum length of about 50 mm (5-10 mm in the first year) and live four to five years. As a native to Russia, zebra mussels were introduced into the Great Lakes in 1985 or 1986, when one or more transoceanic ships discharged ballast water into Lake St. Clair. 2  Being a temperate, freshwater species, the zebra mussels found the plankton-rich Lakes St. Clair and Erie to their liking.
