Showing the top 27 of the 27 Aldi sauces & condiments products that carry a comparable calorie figure, ranked by protein per 100 calories.

What Aldi's sauces & condiments looks like next to everyone else's

Median across the 27 Aldi sauces & condiments products with usable figures is 1g of protein per 100 calories. That is behind the 1.6g median for sauces & condiments across every chain and brand in the database, which is 1,175 products.

Exactly one clears 10g of protein per 100 calories, which is the line Keith uses for a food that pays for its calories.

Of the five chains carrying enough sauces & condiments to compare, Aldi comes fifth, behind Dunnes Stores on 1.9g.

The best Aldi option here reaches 10.1g of protein per 100 calories; somewhere in the wider sauces & condiments group something reaches 17.3g, so Aldi is not where the ceiling is.

Calories run from 44 to 722 per 100g across the Aldi sauces & condiments range, a 16-fold spread, so “Aldi sauces & condiments” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

What to pick in Aldi

Most of what is sold as sauces & condiments is not a protein food. Exactly one product clears 10g per 100 calories, and it sits at the top of the table — an exception, not a rule to shop by.

1 of the 27 carry 400 calories or more per 100g — the ones worth weighing rather than eyeballing.

Where this fits

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

Front-of-pack claims on this stuff rarely match the back, so scan it with the label checker.
