What Aldi's rice looks like next to everyone else's

Median across the 26 Aldi rice products with usable figures is 2.2g of protein per 100 calories. That is level with the 2.4g median for rice across all 408 products in the database, chains and name brands together.

Not one of them clears 10g of protein per 100 calories, which is the line Keith uses for a food that pays for its calories.

Of the three chains carrying enough rice to compare, Aldi comes second, behind Lidl on 2.8g.

The best Aldi option here reaches 7.8g of protein per 100 calories; somewhere in the wider rice group something reaches 21.4g, so Aldi is not where the ceiling is.

Calories run from 84 to 405 per 100g across the Aldi rice range, a 5-fold spread, so “Aldi rice” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

What to pick in Aldi

Nothing here is a protein food, so treat it as calories. At a median of 2.2g of protein per 100 calories this group is a taste and energy decision, not a macro one.

3 of the 26 carry 400 calories or more per 100g — the ones worth weighing rather than eyeballing.

Where this fits

Rice across every Irish store is the wider group this sits in, and everything else Aldi sells is the other half of the comparison.

The practical half of this — counting calories without weighing everything.

For one specific item rather than a shortlist, the 20,000-product database is searchable on Calories in Ireland and built into the calorie app.
