High-protein foods have become all the rage recently, with more and more people taking supplements to help with their gym gains. Lidl is the latest of a long list of supermarkets to bring in high-protein products to their shelves.
But in recent weeks, Lidl’s protein puddings have been trending online and not necessarily for the best reason. The product has had a price lift which hasn’t gone down well. One customer took to Twitter saying: “How has protein pudding in Lidl gone up from 79p to £1.18.”
With the cost of living and inflation, it's no surprise that prices have gone up, but for a small pot of what is basically chocolate mousse, the amount seems almost excessive. I decided that I would give the product a try to see if I liked it for starters but also see if it warrants the nearly £1.20 price tag.
