Centra products ranked by protein density

Showing the top 50 of the 512 Centra products that carry a comparable calorie figure, ranked by protein per 100 calories. Figures per label, sourced from Open Food Facts and tracker user logs, last checked 2026-09-18.

What the Centra numbers show

Across the 512 Centra own-label products with usable label figures, the median is 4.5g of protein per 100 calories. 97 clear 10g of protein per 100 calories — about one in five, and 10g is the line Keith uses for a food that pays for its calories.

That is second of the seven Irish chains we track: Lidl is just ahead on 5g, Tesco just behind on 4.3g.

Calories run from 23 to 743 per 100g across the Centra own-label range, a 32-fold spread, so “Centra own-label” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

What to put in the Centra trolley

The single most protein-dense thing Centra puts its own name on is Centra Tuna Chunks in Brine 160g, at 23g of protein per 100 calories against the 4.5g store median.

61 of the 512 carry 400 calories or more per 100g — the ones worth weighing rather than eyeballing.

Where this fits

The strongest of those is broken out on its own page — Centra Chicken, 30 products — and the same category across every chain and brand is on Chicken in Ireland.

A protein-per-calorie number is only useful once you know the target, and that is how much protein a day actually works out to.

To look up one specific Centra item rather than browse, the whole 20,000-product database is searchable on Calories in Ireland, and the same figures are in the calorie app.
