Lidl Classic Potato Salad is a traditional potato salad made with mashed potatoes, mayonnaise, onions, and seasonings, perfect for a quick meal or lunch option.
The product provides 230 calories per serving, which is relatively low for a meal but moderate when considering it as part of a larger meal. It contains added sugars (6% of daily value) and some sodium (580 mg), which could be reduced for a healthier option. The salad also offers beneficial nutrients like potassium and fiber, though the sugar content and sodium may not be ideal for those monitoring their intake.
Upon examining the ingredients, this product appears to be more processed than minimally processed due to the inclusion of artificial colors (annatto) and preservatives (sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate), as well as added sugars and modified corn starch. These elements suggest extensive processing steps beyond simple preparation.
For a healthier alternative, consider making a homemade potato salad with minimal added sugars or opting for a low-sodium version from other brands if available.
