Calories in Aldi Tomatoes (Ireland)

Aldi tomatoes ranked by protein density

Showing the top 25 of the 25 Aldi tomatoes products that carry a comparable calorie figure, ranked by protein per 100 calories.

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

Median across the 25 Aldi tomatoes products with usable figures is 5g of protein per 100 calories. That is ahead of the 4g median for tomatoes across every chain and brand in the database, which is 680 products.

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 tomatoes to compare, Aldi has the strongest own-label range; Tesco the weakest.

The best Aldi option here reaches 7g of protein per 100 calories; somewhere in the wider tomatoes group something reaches 10.3g, so Aldi is not where the ceiling is.

Calories run from 20 to 485 per 100g across the Aldi tomatoes range, a 24-fold spread, so “Aldi tomatoes” 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 5g of protein per 100 calories this group is a taste and energy decision, not a macro one.

1 of the 25 carry 400 calories or more per 100g — the ones worth weighing rather than eyeballing.

Where this fits

Tomatoes 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.
