Showing the top 50 of the 175 Lidl ham products that carry a comparable calorie figure, ranked by protein per 100 calories.

What Lidl's ham looks like next to everyone else's

Median across the 175 Lidl ham products with usable figures is 17.5g of protein per 100 calories. That is behind the 18g median for ham across every chain and brand in the database, which is 535 products.

166 clear 10g of protein per 100 calories — most of them, and 10g is the line Keith uses for a food that pays for its calories.

Of the three chains carrying enough ham to compare, Lidl comes third, behind Tesco on 18.5g.

The best Lidl option here reaches 21.1g of protein per 100 calories, which is as high as anything in the whole ham group gets.

Calories run from 82 to 300 per 100g across the Lidl ham range, a 4-fold spread, so “Lidl ham” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

What to pick in Lidl

Most of this group already clears the benchmark, so the decision is price and taste rather than macros. Lidl Dulano Bavarian Ham Slices 120g tops the table at 21.1g of protein per 100 calories.

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

Where this fits

Ham 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.

Is Lidl the best place to buy ham?
