1 oz of almonds or
1/2 oz of chicken breast, 2 stalks of broccoli and .61 oz of butter
Both are 170 cals, 15 g fat, 2-3 g net carbs and 6 g protein.
The differences are in micronutrients. I'd have a hard time looking at those in isolation and declaring one better than the other. The real question is the overall balance.
I find that people who eat a lot of cheese or nuts or cream do not eat a lot of veggies. I find that for me, eating a wide variety of veggies is better than eating larger portions of fewer veggies. (I'm using veggies as a shorthand for fruits and vegetables, btw.) I often wonder if other people would benefit from eating more different veggies in smaller portions, but I have no idea if this is the case.
