Dunnes Stores cheese ranked by protein density

Showing the top 50 of the 57 Dunnes Stores cheese 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 Dunnes Stores's cheese looks like next to everyone else's

Median across the 57 Dunnes Stores cheese products with usable figures is 5.9g of protein per 100 calories. That is ahead of the 5.3g median for cheese across every chain and brand in the database, which is 1,079 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 cheese to compare, Dunnes Stores comes fourth, behind SuperValu on 6.7g.

The best Dunnes Stores option here reaches 15g of protein per 100 calories; somewhere in the wider cheese group something reaches 19.6g, so Dunnes Stores is not where the ceiling is.

Calories run from 129 to 500 per 100g across the Dunnes Stores cheese range, a 4-fold spread, so “Dunnes Stores cheese” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

What to pick in Dunnes Stores

On the numbers the pick is Dunnes Stores Reduced Fat High Protein Cheese 200g: 15g of protein per 100 calories, 2.5 times the 5.9g median for the group.

6 of the 57 carry 400 calories or more per 100g — the ones worth weighing rather than eyeballing.

Where this fits

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

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.

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.
