If you want to grab a bag without weighing out a portion, the Doritos Nacho Cheese multipack of 20 × 44 g bags is a good fit. Jumbo lists 3 g of protein and 211 kcal per bag, so think of the crisps as part of your lunch, not as the main source of protein. If you’re sharing or portioning them yourself, check the number of bags, the amount in each one and whether they can be resealed. A larger pack isn’t the same as individual bags for your lunchbox.
You want to include tortilla chips in your diet without overestimating how much protein they provide. The portions mentioned contain a modest amount of protein, so consider the other parts of your lunch too. Jumbo and Albert Heijn list nutritional information for specific packs.
You’re looking for individual, unopened bags to take with you. The Doritos multipack listed by Jumbo contains 20 bags of 44 g each; that fixed portion may not match the amount you want to eat.
You want to split the crisps between several people or eating occasions. A multipack of individual bags, one larger bag and a resealable snack box are different types of packaging, and they don’t offer the same convenience.
First decide whether you want fixed, unopened portions to take with you or prefer to portion them yourself. Then compare the nutritional information for the amount you actually eat.
The percentages below relate to consumers choosing tortilla chips as part of a protein-conscious diet. Each row focuses on the stated top purchasing priority.
| What to consider | What should you check? | Who is this important to? |
|---|---|---|
| Protein and energy per portion | Compare protein and energy per 100 g and per the amount you eat. | If I want to know what my portion of crisps actually adds to lunch, I look at both figures. Around 40% of consumers put protein content first. |
| Individual lunchbox bags | Check the number of individual packs and the weight of each bag. | If I want to take an unopened bag with me or hand one out, a fixed portion is handy, but it may be larger than the amount I want. Around 30% of consumers prioritise individual bags for taking with them. |
| Sharing and storage | Check the amount in each bag, whether it can be resealed and the storage advice after opening. | If I want to split the crisps across several eating occasions, I want to choose my own portion and seal the rest properly. Around 20% of consumers put sharing and portioning them themselves first. |
| Total amount and bag size | Check the number of bags and the amount in each one; the total weight alone doesn’t tell you how many individual portions you’ll get. | If I want to estimate how many packs I’ll actually use, I compare both the number of bags and the amount in each one. Around 10% of consumers prioritise quantity and pack size. |
According to Jumbo, a 44 g bag of Doritos contains 3 g of protein and 211 kcal. Individual packaging doesn’t change these nutritional values.
Consider the protein in your whole lunch. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre lists dairy, eggs, pulses and tofu among foods that contain protein.
A box of 20 bags of 44 g and a multipack of 5 bags of 170 g are divided differently, even though their calculated total amounts are similar. The supplier lists the 5 × 170 g multipack as unavailable, so don’t treat this size as a current buying option.
Check both the number of individual packs and the weight of each one. With larger bags, you’ll need to portion the crisps yourself, and a sealed container of your own may come in handy.
The Netherlands Nutrition Centre advises storing opened crisps in a kitchen cupboard for 2–5 days; they may become less crunchy.
Choose a bag size that suits how much you’ll eat, seal the pack properly after use and follow the storage advice on the packaging too.
Doritos and Mission’s US product information describes separate protein product ranges. This doesn’t mean a Dutch multipack has the same ingredients.
Compare the full product name, variant, pack size and nutritional information for the product you’re actually buying.
There are several pack formats, including a Dutch multipack and a snack box.
The own-brand range includes plain tortilla chips in a single 200 g bag.
Jumbo lists both its own-brand plain crisps in a 300 g bag and the Doritos multipack.
Lidl lists Snack Day as its own snack brand and features Snack Day sweet chilli tortilla chips.
Aldi lists SUN SNACKS blue corn tortilla chips.
In Europe, Mission describes tortilla chips in various shapes and pack configurations.
The products below are multipacks of individually wrapped snacks, designed for taking with you and sharing. They’re not the same as a multipack made up exclusively of tortilla chips.

For Doritos Nacho Cheese 20 × 44 g, Jumbo lists 3 g of protein and 211 kcal per bag. These values apply to that specific variant and pack, not automatically to all bags of Doritos.
No. Doritos describes the Nacho Cheese Snackbox as a resealable pack, while the multipack listed by Jumbo contains 20 individual bags. So a resealable pack doesn’t automatically mean you get individual portions.
Seal the pack properly after use and follow the advice on the product label. The Netherlands Nutrition Centre recommends keeping opened crisps in a kitchen cupboard for 2–5 days; they may become less crunchy.
Check the ingredients and allergen information on the exact pack. The Doritos Nacho Cheese multipack checked contains milk; AH Tortilla chips plain, 200 g, is labelled as possibly containing soya. These statements don’t apply to all flavours or product ranges.
Compare the number of individual packs and the weight of each bag, as well as how much you want to eat at a time. Twenty bags of 44 g are suited to different occasions when you’re out and about than a single 200 g or 300 g bag, which you’ll need to portion yourself.
