The top five, protein per portion

The order is by how many members logged each product. Protein-packed means 15 g of protein or more, with protein making up at least 30% of the calories, ParrotPal’s definition. Figures are the typical portion as members logged it, so check the label.
Deleted diary entries are left out here, so a figure can differ slightly from the full report published on 1 October 2026.
What this means
Protein pots and puddings are an easy way to get a good dose of protein in one go. Compare the label: portion sizes vary between brands.
