How this ranking is made

1,459 products in the aisle declare protein; 1,445 are ranked, leaving out 1 placeholders with near-zero energy; 6 records above 18.0 g per 100 g (1.25 times the aisle's 99th percentile; a name or brand built on protein, such as protein, skyr or ultra-filtered, is exempt) or whose label declares more protein, fat and carbohydrate than its calories can hold; 2 mixes, powders or concentrates; 5 named by the publisher's review (below) (each rule). Values are per 100 g as each manufacturer submitted them to USDA, one product per UPC (its newest submission that meets the data contract), and one per product sold under several UPCs with the same label. The top 100 are shown; each was read again from USDA's live record at this release, and USDA's corrections are applied.

Ceiling: for products named "brown rice", values above 11.3 g per 100 g are left out (Rice, brown, long-grain, raw (FDC 169703): 7.54 g protein per 100 g; 1.5 times it).

Left out after review:
