A word of caution . . . a standard slice of corned beef (from standard supermarket pack) is typically 3.82g per 100g and not 8.4g. The same slice contains 53 calories and 3.99g of fat (of which 1.331g is the nasty saturated fat).
If you are looking to get the most from you food intake in the protein sense then the winners are (but as always, beware the fat content . . .) :
1: Cheese
Low sodium Parmesan cheese provides the most protein with 41.6g per 100g serving. Regular whole Parmesan at 35.8 grams of protein per 100 grams (10g per ounce). Other cheeses like Romano, Mozzarella, and Swiss provide around 28-30 grams of protein per 100g serving. Softer cream cheeses, or spreadable cheeses, provide the least protein with only 16g per 100g serving. Consider Non-Fat Mozzarella Cheese at 32g per 100g protein and as it says on the tin no fat (149 calories per 100g).
2: Mature (Large) Beans
Strangely, the older, larger, and more mature a bean gets the more protein it carries. Mature roasted soybeans have the most providing 39.6g of protein per 100g serving (68g per cup). Mature Lupin beans provide 15.6g per 100g serving (25.8g per cup).
3: Lean Veal and Beef
Specifically the top round of veal or beef provides around 36g per 100 g serving (31g per 3 ounce serving).
4: Roasted Pumpkin, Squash, and Watermelon Seeds
Pumpkin and squash seeds provide 33g per 100g. Watermelon seeds provide slightly less at 28g per 100g.
5: Lean Meats (Chicken, Lamb, Pork, Turkey)
On average lean meats provide around 30g (30%) in a 100g. Chicken broilers have the most with 32.8g per 100g (averaging 27g in half a chicken breast). Pork loin and chops have 30g per 100g.
6: Fish (Tuna, Anchovies, Salmon)
Yellowfin Tuna provides 30g per 100g (about 8 grams per ounce). Anchovies (29g), Salmon(27g), Halibut(27g), Snapper(26g), and Tilapia(26g).
7: Fish Eggs (Roe and Caviar)
Caviar and fish eggs typically provide 28.6g per 100g (8g per ounce). Caviar = 24g per 100g (6.9g per ounce). Compare to chicken eggs at 13.6g 100g.
8: Yeast Extract Spread (aka: Marmite)
Love or hate it . . . a good source of B12 with 27.8g per 100g (1.7g per teaspoon).
9: Lobster and Crab
A 100g serving of lobster contains 26.4g of protein (typically, 43g per lobster). Crab provides a little less with 19.4g per 100g.
10: Lentils, Pulses, and Peanuts
Peanuts provide the most protein with 23.7g per 100g (but beware the fat content!). Lentils when consumed raw = 25.8g per 100g serving but only 9g per 100g.
