For a light snack base, compare Kallo Protein Lentil Cakes: Tesco lists 26g protein per 100g, but only 1.8g per cake. For a barbecue-flavoured rice cake, M&S lists 24.8g protein per 100g alongside 451 kcal and 16.2g fat per 100g. Check the current pack before gifting, especially for ingredients and allergens; do not assume a similarly named listing has the same nutrition panel.
If the recipient prefers savoury food, compare Kallo’s lentil cakes as a light snack base with M&S’s barbecue-flavoured rice cakes. The choice depends on the flavour and portion they would enjoy, not just the protein figure on the front of the pack.
The Kallo products listed by Tesco and Sainsbury’s and the M&S barbecue product carry these dietary descriptions. Check the pack you are buying for current ingredients and allergen statements, particularly when the snack is a gift.
Tesco lists 1.8g protein in one Kallo lentil cake. If the aim is a snack with more protein than the cake alone provides, choose any topping or accompanying food according to its own label and the recipient’s preferences.
Compare protein in the same units first, then check the portion, flavour and current pack information for the person who will eat the snack.
| Priority | What to check | Your needs |
|---|---|---|
| Protein per portion | Tesco lists Kallo Protein Lentil Cakes at 26g protein per 100g and 1.8g per cake; M&S lists its Barbecue High Protein Rice Cakes at 24.8g per 100g. Compare the pack you buy in both units. | I want to know what one cake contributes, rather than judging the snack by its per-100g figure alone. |
| Snack style | Compare the plain lentil-cake format with M&S’s barbecue flavour. M&S declares 451 kcal and 16.2g fat per 100g for its product; use each current nutrition panel when comparing portions. | For a gift, I need to know whether the recipient would prefer a base for toppings or a flavoured savoury snack. |
| Dietary details | Check current vegan and gluten-free labelling, the ingredients list and precautionary allergen statements. Tesco’s Kallo listing says the product may contain sesame seed and soya. | If I am buying for someone with a dietary restriction or allergy, I need to check the particular pack I will give them. |
