Showing the top 50 of the 150 Lidl cheese products that carry a comparable calorie figure, ranked by protein per 100 calories.
Median across the 150 Lidl cheese products with usable figures is 5.7g of protein per 100 calories. That is ahead of the 4.5g median for cheese across every chain and brand in the database, which is 698 products.
16 clear 10g of protein per 100 calories — about one in nine, and 10g is the line Keith uses for a food that pays for its calories.
Of the four chains carrying enough cheese to compare, Lidl comes fourth, behind SuperValu on 6.7g.
The best Lidl option here reaches 17.9g of protein per 100 calories; somewhere in the wider cheese group something reaches 18.9g, so Lidl is not where the ceiling is.
Calories run from 70 to 547 per 100g across the Lidl cheese range, an 8-fold spread, so “Lidl cheese” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.
On the numbers the pick is Lidl Milbona High Protein Cottage Cheese 450g: 17.9g of protein per 100 calories, 3.1 times the 5.7g median for the group.
37 of the 150 carry 400 calories or more per 100g — the ones worth weighing rather than eyeballing.
Cheese across every Irish store is the wider group this sits in, and everything else Lidl 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 free calorie tracker.
We track 150 Lidl cheese products with full label figures. 150 of them carry 20 calories or more per 100g, so those are the ones ranked and averaged here; 16 clear 10g of protein per 100 calories.
On protein per calorie alone, Lidl's median is 5.7g against 4.5g for cheese across every chain and brand we track. That is one number out of several — price and taste are not in this database — but it is the one nobody prints on the shelf.
