Showing the top 32 of the 32 Dunnes Stores vegetables products that carry a comparable calorie figure, ranked by protein per 100 calories.

What Dunnes Stores's vegetables looks like next to everyone else's

Median across the 32 Dunnes Stores vegetables products with usable figures is 6g of protein per 100 calories. That is ahead of the 4.6g median for vegetables across every chain and brand in the database, which is 395 products.

6 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.

Of the four chains carrying enough vegetables to compare, Dunnes Stores has the strongest own-label range; Lidl the weakest.

The best Dunnes Stores option here reaches 13g of protein per 100 calories; somewhere in the wider vegetables group something reaches 14.8g, so Dunnes Stores is not where the ceiling is.

Calories run from 20 to 322 per 100g across the Dunnes Stores vegetables range, a 16-fold spread, so “Dunnes Stores vegetables” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

What to pick in Dunnes Stores

Most of what is sold as vegetables is not a protein food. The 6 that clear 10g per 100 calories sit at the top of the table and are the exceptions, not the rule.

Nothing in here passes 400 calories per 100g, so portion size matters less than it does in the snack aisles.

Where this fits

Vegetables across every Irish store is the wider group this sits in, and everything else Dunnes Stores 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.
