How Much Fat is in Dry Roasted Peanuts

Question: How much fat and calories do 100 grams of dry roasted peanuts contain? I am snacking on them mostly for protein but I am concerned about any damaging effects it may have on my diet. Thanks, Tanya

Answer: Tanya, 100 grams of peanuts have 594 calories (51 grams of fat, but only 18 grams of protein). Don't rely on just peanuts for protein. There just isn't that much protein in them in relation to the amount of (fat) calories they contain. You can get a whole lot more protein in half a breast of chicken, which will only give you 142 calories and only 3 grams of fat.
