Who is this choice relevant to?

People who exercise and compare protein per snack

You want something savoury and crunchy after exercise, so you check how much protein is in the bag you’ll actually eat without treating crisps as a complete meal.

Consumers who prioritise organic certification

You want to be able to recognise the EU organic logo and control code rather than relying on words such as ‘natural’. According to the European Commission, the organic logo is linked to certification by an approved control body.

Consumers who keep an eye on portion size and salt

You want to choose a salty snack knowing what you’re eating per portion. To do this, compare the nutritional information per 100 g with the pack size.

What should you look for when choosing?

When choosing organic paprika crisps, check the certification and ingredients first. Then compare the nutritional information per 100 g with the portion you plan to eat.

What to look for What to check when buying Who it matters to
Protein per portion Compare the protein per 100 g and per bag or chosen portion. If I want to eat crisps after exercise, I want to know how much protein is in my portion. Around 31% of consumers prioritise protein when choosing this type of snack.
Organic certification Check the EU organic logo, control code and indication of origin on the label. I want to be able to see that my paprika crisps are organically certified, whether they’re made from potatoes or pulses. For around 31% of consumers, this is the first thing they look for.
Portion size and nutritional value Check the energy, fat and salt per 100 g, and consider how much you’ll actually eat. When choosing a salty snack, I want to take my portion size into account rather than focus on one standout nutritional value. Around 23% of consumers say this is their priority.
Ingredients and allergens Read the current ingredients list, allergen information and any dietary claims for the variant you’ve chosen. If I need to avoid certain ingredients, the label determines whether this variant is suitable for me. This is a priority for around 15% of consumers.

Common mistakes

  • Confusing organic certification with nutritional value

    According to the European Commission, the EU organic logo relates to organic certification. It doesn’t tell you how much protein, carbohydrate or salt the crisps contain.

    Check the nutritional information as well as the certification logo. For a meal after intense exercise, the Voedingscentrum also discusses foods rich in protein and carbohydrates.

  • Looking only at the protein figure per 100 g

    Jumbo lists 24 g of protein per 100 g for The Organic Crave Protein Chips Paprika & Onion, but 7.1 g for the whole 30 g bag. According to the same product listing, the bag contains 0.57 g of salt.

    Compare values on the same basis, then consider how much you actually plan to eat.

  • Assuming a product listing means it’s available

    Jumbo’s listing for The Organic Crave Protein Chips Paprika & Onion says the product is no longer part of its online range.

    Check current availability before choosing that particular variant.

  • Focusing on just one nutritional value

    A lower fat figure doesn’t answer your question about salt: Ekoplaza lists 2.5 g of salt per 100 g for Trafo Hummus Chips Paprika.

    Look at energy, fat, salt and protein together, and take your portion size into account when comparing products.

Frequently asked questions

Are organic paprika crisps automatically a good choice after exercise?

No. Organic certification says nothing about the nutritional value of a bag of crisps. The Voedingscentrum also discusses foods rich in protein and carbohydrates after intense exercise, so consider what else you’re eating rather than relying on the certification logo alone.

How can I identify organically certified paprika crisps?

Look for the EU organic logo and check the control body code and indication of origin on the packaging. According to the European Commission, the organic logo may only appear on products certified as organic by an approved control body.

How much protein is in a bag of The Organic Crave Paprika & Onion?

Jumbo’s product listing gives 7.1 g of protein per 30 g bag, compared with 24 g per 100 g. Jumbo also says this variant is no longer part of its online range; check availability if this is the bag you’re looking for.

Do I need to check for allergens if crisps are labelled vegan?

Yes. A vegan label doesn’t replace the allergen information. Jumbo notes that The Organic Crave Protein Chips Paprika & Onion may contain traces of milk and soya. Always check the current label on the variant you’re buying.
