HOW TO ENJOY IT ON KETO

  • Moderate net carbs (~3g/100g) allow occasional inclusion on keto
  • High fat content supports ketosis and satiety
  • Quick protein for busy days (no bun keeps carbs low)
  • Satisfying, savory flavor can aid adherence
  • Label-dependent: choose options without added sugar/starch
