If protein per pack is your priority, compare specialist protein crisps: Applied Nutrition lists 15g per 50g bag and Myprotein lists 11g per 25g pack, while the cited Walkers Oven Baked Sea Salt pack lists 1.3g and a Tyrrells lentil-crisp serving lists 3.9g. For a snack close to bedtime, check the pack size, energy, salt and exact flavour’s allergen information too; protein content is not a reason to expect a sleep benefit, and the NHS advises against a big meal late at night.
If you want a crisp-like snack after dinner, compare protein per individual pack rather than relying on a product name. Pack size, energy and salt also matter when you are choosing a portion for late at night.
If you prefer a ready-to-eat savoury snack to a sweet one, the cited Applied Nutrition bag lists 15g protein in 50g, while the cited Myprotein pack lists 11g in 25g. The protein amounts come with different portion sizes.
Compare the exact flavour rather than treating protein crisps as interchangeable. The cited Myprotein Salt & Vinegar pack lists 1.40g salt per 25g and contains soya, with precautionary information for other allergens.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Protein per snack | Read the grams of protein per pack or per serving, and check how many servings the pack contains. Applied Nutrition lists 15g per 50g bag; Myprotein lists 11g per 25g pack. | I’m choosing crisps specifically for protein, so I want to know what the portion I would actually eat provides—not just whether its name mentions protein. |
| Portion size | Compare pack weight and energy alongside protein: the cited Myprotein pack is 25g and 92 kcal, while the cited Applied Nutrition bag is 50g and 210 kcal. The NHS advises against a big meal late at night. | For a snack close to bedtime, I’d rather choose a portion deliberately than assume a larger bag suits me because it contains more protein. |
| Salt and allergens | Read the nutrition and allergen declarations for the exact flavour. Myprotein Salt & Vinegar lists 1.40g salt per 25g pack and contains soya; the cited Joybuy listing for Applied Nutrition Original lists 0.65g salt per pack. | Protein alone does not tell me whether a flavour fits my salt preference or whether I need to avoid an ingredient or precautionary allergen. |
The cited Walkers Oven Baked Sea Salt pack lists 1.3g protein per 22g, while Tyrrells Sour Cream & Onion Lentil Crisps list 3.9g per 30g serving. Preparation or main ingredient does not tell you the protein amount in your portion.
Check grams of protein for the pack or serving you intend to eat before comparing it with a specialist protein crisp.
The cited Myprotein Salt & Vinegar pack lists 11g protein alongside 1.40g salt per 25g; it contains soya and carries precautionary allergen information.
Read salt, ingredients and allergen information on the chosen flavour’s label, not just the protein figure on the front.
Protein content does not establish a sleep benefit. The NHS advises against a big meal late at night.
If you want a late snack, compare the portion sizes rather than adding extra bags because they are marketed for protein.
