Showing the top 50 of the 316 nuts 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.

Checking this because you’re trying to lose fat?

Scan your own shop with FoodSussed: calories and macros from the barcode, plus an estimated processing level from 1 to 4 with the reasons. Or start with the fat-loss guide built around Irish food.

What the nuts numbers show

Median across all 316 of them is 3.2g of protein per 100 calories. Exactly one clears 10g of protein per 100 calories, which is the line Keith uses for a food that pays for its calories.

Calories run from 23 to 752 per 100g inside this one group, a 33-fold spread, so “nuts” on its own tells you almost nothing about what a portion costs you.

Name brands do lead this one: 3.3g of protein per 100 calories at the median across 224 products, against 3.1g for the 92 own-label ones.

What to actually pick

Most of what is sold as nuts is not a protein food. Exactly one product clears 10g per 100 calories, and it sits at the top of the table — an exception, not a rule to shop by.

233 of the 316 carry 400 calories or more per 100g — the ones worth weighing rather than eyeballing.

Where this fits

This is the aisle that quietly wrecks a calorie target, which is the whole point of where the calories actually hide.

For one specific product rather than the whole group, the 20,000-product database is searchable on Calories in Ireland, and the same figures are built into the calorie app.

Real nuts products with a photo

Real barcode-matched products with a confirmed photo — the same rule as Calories in Ireland: a photo only shows where we have a confirmed Open Food Facts match, never a guessed stock image.

FAQ

How many nuts products are in this database?

We track 316 nuts products across Irish supermarkets and brands. 316 of them carry 20 calories or more per 100g, which is the point below which protein per 100 calories stops being a real number, so those are the ones ranked and averaged here.

What's the most protein-dense nuts product?

The table is sorted highest protein per 100 calories first, so the answer is the top row. The more useful number is that the median for the whole group is 3.2g per 100 calories and 1 products clear 10g — that tells you whether nuts is worth buying for protein at all, which protein per 100g does not.
