Salt highlighted in amber above 38% of adult daily limit (2.3g), red above 75% (4.5g). All figures calculated from per-100g nutrition.
Own Brand Ridge Cut Crisps contains 513 kcal, 31.3g of fat (3g saturated), 55g of carbohydrate (0.75g sugar), 3.75g of fibre, 6.25g of protein and 1.5g of salt per 100g.
Own-brand ridge-cut crisps from UK supermarkets (Aldi, Lidl, Tesco, Sainsbury's, ASDA) use formulations very similar to standard branded crisps: potato, oil and salt. The nutritional difference per 100g between own-brand and branded crisps of the same type is typically marginal.
A standard bag (25g) and a sharing bag (150g) contain very different amounts. A standard bag delivers 128 kcal and 0.38g of salt. A sharing bag delivers 770 kcal and 2.25g of salt, 38% of the adult daily limit, from a single product.
This matters because crisps are one of the easiest snacks to eat passively. Opening a sharing bag while watching television, or finishing a grab bag that was opened for a small snack, is common. The table above shows the nutritional impact at each pack size so the difference is visible before reaching into the bag.

Salt
Own Brand Ridge Cut Crisps contains 1.5g of salt per 100g. A standard bag (25g) delivers 0.38g of salt, 6% of the adult daily limit of 6g and 13% of the limit for a child aged 4 to 6 (3g). A sharing bag (150g) delivers 2.25g of salt, 38% of the adult daily limit.
Saturated fat
Own Brand Ridge Cut Crisps contains 3g of saturated fat per 100g, 15% of the adult daily guideline of 20g. A standard bag (25g) delivers 0.75g of saturated fat (4% of the adult guideline). A sharing bag (150g) delivers 4.5g (23% of the adult guideline).
The saturated fat content of 3g per 100g is moderate for this type of snack. Most crisps fried in sunflower oil contain 2 to 3.5g of saturated fat per 100g.
Sugar
Own Brand Ridge Cut Crisps contains 0.75g of sugar per 100g. For most savoury snacks, sugar is a minor component of the seasoning blend rather than a primary ingredient. A standard bag (25g) contains 0.19g of sugar, a negligible contribution to the daily free sugar limit of 30g for adults.
Fibre and protein
Own Brand Ridge Cut Crisps contains 3.75g of fibre and 6.25g of protein per 100g. A standard bag (25g) provides 0.94g of fibre (3% of the adult daily target of 30g) and 1.56g of protein.
Ultra-processed food: what is really in it
Own Brand Ridge Cut Crisps is made from one main component: ridge-cut potato crisps.
A home-made equivalent, prepared in one kitchen from whole ingredients, would use a handful of recognisable components with no additives. These processing aids are used because the brief contact time during industrial frying or baking is insufficient to develop the complex, stable flavours the seasoning provides at scale.
Ridge-cut potato crisps
Potato, sunflower or rapeseed oil, salt. Most supermarket own-brand ridge-cut crisps use this minimal formulation.
Looking at the ingredient list tells a different story from just the headline numbers. The additives and processing aids give this product its consistent flavour at industrial scale.
Processing (NOVA classification)
Own Brand Ridge Cut Crisps falls into NOVA group 4, ultra-processed food. The NOVA classification system groups foods by the extent and purpose of the processing involved. Group 4 covers products formulated from substances derived from foods plus additives, with little or no whole food recognisable in the final product. This classification applies to almost all commercially produced flavoured crisps and snacks, regardless of whether they are marketed as baked, hand-cooked, natural or healthier.
