There is no shortcut to the ketogenic diet, but there is a store that makes sticking to it easier (and tastier). Enter: Whole Foods, the mecca of natural and organic foods and your one-stop shop for keto-approved snacks that will keep you satiated when hunger strikes between meals (because sometimes eggs and cheese won’t cut it). Ahead, eight keto-friendly nibbles to always have on hand.
Kettle & Fire Mushroom Bisque Keto Soup: When you crave something warm and comforting to tide you over until your next meal, look no further than this appetizer. Loaded with 22 grams of fat and nine grams of protein (and only two grams of net carbs), we bet you’ll be adding this to your weekly rotation.
Country Archer Grass-Fed Beef Jerky: With varieties like mango habanero, mustard BBQ, and spicy sesame garlic, your snacktime just got a lot more exciting. Pair it with cheddar cheese or a handful of brazil nuts for a well-rounded keto bite.
EPIC Provisions Oven Baked Pork Rinds: Don’t sleep on these crispy “chips,” especially come game day! To kick them up a notch, complement them with a keto-friendly condiment (or two) and you’ll have a sure-fire winner.
Dang Foods Peanut Butter Bar: Packed with 15 grams of fat and nine grams of protein, this just might be your new go-to pre-workout or addition to your meal-prepped lunch. From peanut butter and mint chocolate to almond vanilla and lemon matcha, there’s a flavor for everyone. Plus, because they’re all made of only plant-based ingredients, they’re vegan and vegetarian-friendly.
Eating Evolved Keto Cups: Who says you can’t have dessert on keto? When your sweet tooth kicks in, this treat will do the trick. Made of only clean, organic ingredients, including weight loss-boosting MCT oil [1], you can enjoy every morsel knowing you’re doing your body good.
Base Culture Keto Bread: Bread is no longer off the table thanks to this frozen aisle find. It’s not only keto-friendly, but also grain, gluten, and preservative-free. Grilled cheese, anyone?
Koia Chocolate Brownie Keto Shake: High in fat and protein, this drink fits the bill for a perfect grab-and-go, keto-friendly handheld. And with other flavors like cake batter, caramel créme, cookies ‘n cream, it’s equal parts indulgent and nutritious.
Birch Benders Keto Toaster Waffles: Your favorite childhood breakfast staple just got a keto makeover. Pop it in the toaster for a morning or midday snack and top it off with peanut butter (yes, peanut butter is keto!) for a boost of healthy fat. Did we mention there’s also a chocolate chip version?
