I only buy LMNT when I do buy 3 boxes get 1 free. I don’t use them every day so it lasts a long time. I’m saving money elsewhere on my Keto journey so I’m okay with the splurge every 5 months or so
I agree. The expense of these prepared items is usually ridiculously high. I can't afford them, and am surprised that anyone can! So many wealthy people??
Nice having so many convenient Keto products available. Unfortunately, most are out of my price range unless I want to go back to work and I'm enjoying retirement too much to do that.
It’s not fair! You are so fortunate in the States to have access to all this keto food….in the uk we are still zucchini noodling and cauliflower rice. Buying from Amazon and postage costs from USA is so prohibitive! I hope you all appreciate what you have!
It is similar in Sweden but I don't really think that this is bad, I think a lot of the premade keto stuff is utter crap. I would like to see some of the good keto food but not shelves and shelves of gluten bombs of keto bread. Keto noodles would be a great thing though and even more sugar substitutes. Here, you are not guarantied to find any decent sugar substitutes even in big stores. Keto flours are reasonably easy to access but still quite expensive. If someone would make good keto bread I would certainly buy it but I am not holding my breath, I suspect any product would still be something I wouldn't buy. The only thing I think is reasonably good here is sugar free candy. There seems to be a big market for that even outside keto so that is no longer an issue.
I never liked pasta all that much. It was just a carrier for what I *did* like, the sauce and meat. So that's the part I make now, with added parmesan :)
When my children were small, I used to make macaroni cheese with beans - cheap and much more nutritious than pasta. However, one memorable day, I poured the contents of the tin of beans (ran out of fresh) into the cheese sauce and to my horror the liquid they were canned in was bright green! To this day my children repeat the story of how they had Martian Mishmash for dinner (and loved it).
thanks for all the great info! I had high hopes for the S Hughes Sugar Free BBQ but it has corn starch as the thickener which is what adds the carbs. I've just learned this is a common trick to say no added sugar, but other items included have sugar......
My favorite for 1 gm net carb per serving of deliciousness for : gourmet coffee taste, decadent jellies/marmalade, hot chocolate, marshmallows, Danish cookies, truffles, syrups, addictive toffees, spreads that I also use to make brownies/cakes/cookies is from a company called Choczero. I see some of your recipes on their site.
I do try to make as much as I can from scratch, but it is so nice to have products in the store as backups. The low carb pasta is a godsend! Thanks for all your recipes and for sharing these products, I wasn’t aware there were so many now.
@@KetoFocus Me, too! They're great for so many things! I use them to make enchiladas. Are they tortillas? Nope. Are they "good enough"? For zero carbs, yep. And toasted in a skillet, they make great tostadas. If you stop a little short, you can fold and drape for taco shells - BIG taco shells! 😂 I've even cut them down and toasted them lightly to make bun substitutes somewhat like the outer aisle sandwich thins in terms of size and shape but without the stinky caulifloweriness.
@KetoFocus , I am fairly new to your channel. I took one look at you and could tell that you were extremely smart. Impressed to know you are a pharmacist!
The reason many of us go low carb is to lose weight but to also break our sugar/eating addictions. The last thing I want to do is learn a whole lot of imitation recipes and start snacking again. I know this is an advertisement but it was also very annoying to see we have keto snacks that are virtually the same crunch as carbs.
I still prefer cooking from scratch because I control the ingredients, but Keto noodles, sauces, and breads have been a game changer for us. It may seem strange, but South Africa has been catering for Keto dieters (known as Banting) longer than the US. It has been seen as a lifestyle here, not just a fad diet. In fact, Banting noodles here are so much better than in the US. I'm glad the US is providing more, still...I would continue reading the ingredient list!
I've been buying the Kaizen pasta for ages. They have two versions: one has 6g net carbs, one has 2g. I stopped buying the 6g version. I only wish they'd expand into lasagna and spaghetti noodles, but other than lasagna, the shape isn't important. It's the same thing, so I just eat spaghetti with whatever shape I have on hand. It's as "noodly" as you're gonna get on keto. The rice makes a fantastic pilaf, too! Magic Spoon is my go-to breakfast cereal. The fruity flavor tastes just like (and better than) either Trix or Froot Loops! The blueberry muffin tastes WAY better than Boo Berry, too! The problem is the price. It costs $10.00 for a measly 7 oz (they claim 5 servings) box. That's $2.00 per bowl! 😳 Now most of those quick keto foods aren't all that keto, either. Read the ingredient lists. Also, a lot of them taste disgusting, like a lot of the cake mixes. I threw away all but one piece (the piece I tried) of a keto cake because I just couldn't stomach it, and they're not cheap, either. The BBQ sauces are surprisingly good. Now most keto products aren't in everyone's grocery stores. I live in a major metropolitan area, and pretty much the only store that carries a decent amount of keto products is actually Walmart.
They are expensive, but the seeded brownberry (arnold) brand is, also their hot dog and hamburger buns... actually taste good and don't disintegrate when toasted. I use them sparingly, but they are game changers when you want a grilled hotdog ona bun, or a REAL burger or sloppy joe. walmart carries them, sometimes, so I can save a dollar or so, if I'm lucky
Again, while I appreciate your choices, for the average person the price of these items is economically out of the range of most people's budget. My challenge to you and any keto/low carb advocates is to provide choices of items that is affordable to people whom 4:33 struggle to make ends meet. As influencers of keto abs and other diets you should strongly be advocating to these companies to lower their costs to the average consumer. Bottom line is that the average American is not going to purchase these items because of the exorbitant prices. If you want to be a spokesman for a healthy way of eating you should have as your number 1 goal to provide healthy and affordable choices.
Keto is about avoiding processed foods these are considered a treat not a everyday option or else your defeating the benefits of keto. Also it is supply and demand as for prices. Unfortunately we are in an inflationary period for all items. As long as FED keeps printing $ it buys less.
@@t.haller6093 What you state is half truths. Supply and demand is a laugh. Bottom line keto foods products are overpriced and these companies are reaping in a hefty money profit. The average person cannot afford these overprice products. To excuse their practices only further frustrate the issues and solutions. These "keto" companies will continue to practice their practices until the public saids enough and the keto influencers take stand against them. Come on for example a bag of almond flour and monk fruit sweetener cost anywhere from$15 to $30. A bag of regular flour maybe $5. Yes the almond flour is healthier but if you can't afford it, which most people can't it is useless. Please don't try to defend these greedy companies.
Thank you for the great ideas. I hesitated spending extra cash on products I wasn't sure I would like, but thanks to you and other Keto People we hear about new products and your recipes don't disappoint. It was had changing lifestyles, but so worth it. I haven't lost any more weight, but have a lot more energy and my daily outlook is happier. Your pie crust is to die for, BTW, will be making my Thanksgiving pies this year, no problem.
The problem with prepared keto breads and store bought tortillas is not only a lot of preservatives which are bad, but most are made with high inflammatory oils. Inflammation is the number one cause of most diseases such as diabetes. Low carbs is not the only thing you should be looking at on the nutrition label.
You really have to check ingredients carefully. A gal at work made brownies for my birthday, and they were sugar free, which was so nice. However I checked the ingredients and malitol was the main sweetener! A bd bad oils, etc. I did have one small bite so I could tell her how yummy they were…Oh, I think it was Duncan Hines or Pilsbury
More of these videos please! This is what I need. I don't have the time or energy to cook most days so keto feels so limiting because I need more non-cook or microwave options.
I’m a type 2 diabetic so I’m always counting carbs. I’ve found some zero carb bread at a local grocery store (Walmart doesn’t carry it) and very low carb ice cream that is at Walmart. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a low carb, packaged food, no matter who is selling it, that isn’t amazingly expensive.
I've found that boiling the shirataki noodles for 5-10 minutes (depending on the type) really helps with the chewiness. I know they say they don't require cooking, but I think they are greatly improved. I found the hearts of palm noodles to be very tough and ended up tossing them - I don't remember what brand it was though. I am REALLY looking forward to trying that mushroom soup!!
Great video! Learned a lot of cool substitutions (mushroom bone broth!) and thanks for showing us the small local business - checking them out now! Have a great weekend! ❤
You might be better off - the serving sizes to make it low carb are often ridiculously small, and there can be ingredients that you're better off avoiding. Plus - most often I've found the taste/texture just isn't what I had hoped for.... and they can be crazy expensive! Cheers!
Thank you Annie!!! I really appreciate these suggestions, but I wish they would t gouge on the prices. Maybe one day all foods will be healthy without having to sell you car to buy this stuff. Happy holidays!
My point exactly. This is such an unhealthy version of keto. You can have vegetables and quality meat 🥩 - instead of replacing everything and calling it “keto”.
I am in Australia & there is basically none of this - there is some bread/wraps but I need to be gluten free & the cost is ridiculous but there are no sauces or anything here - I also count total carbs & the snack bars here that say low carb for net carbs are insanely high total carbs
Be wary 99,9% of keto bread has Canola, soybean oil, or some other form of Seed oils WHICH are WORSE for you than sugar :( Which honestly it 99% of the problem with packaged foods :(
The price for keto products are way too expensive. A loaf of bread, the cheapest is $8.48, and the rest of the food that is healthy and / or keto is way too pricey.
😑 unfortunately in southern New Zealand we don't have access to any of this stuff so yeah if we want alternatives we either forget it or make it ourselves because we are so far behind everyone else with keto foods😬 we just got shiritaki noodles last year, yeah rhe rubbishy noodles, we just got those. Generally if it's label is keto in a NZ supermarket its overpriced and isnt keto either😲 but its nice to see at least someone has some options 😂
Blue Barn Bakery cookies are lovely! We ordered them for our own personal treats during the holidays. Delicious!! Highly recommend if you can afford them.
@@gaurivasudevan2291 Urinalysis strips are reasonably priced. But the nutrition info on the packaging tells us, between the macros and the ingredients.
We arent used to as many 'boxed' ingredients as in america and there still are VERY few easily accessible keto alternatives.

1 egg plus 1/3 to 1/2 scoop protein powder plus 1/3 to 1/2 cup shredded mild cheese plus a bit of water to make a batter, 4 to 5 minutes in a large Belgian waffle iron (not those silly tiny ones, they're gimmicky). Right now I'm addicted to apple cinnamon ones using Ketochow apple pie flavor and I add a little bit of cinnamon 'sugar' to the batter. You can double the recipe and it makes an entire meal easily for almost zero carbs. If it's not quite crispy after 4-5 minutes, open the iron up and let the waffle crisp up with the iron unplugged. The cheese gets crispy like the rim of a well cooked pizza. These chaffles substitute for me for just about every craving; for bread, crispy, savory, sweet, or 'cookies'. You can even use the egg, plain unflavored protein powder and stuffing seasonings to make zero carb stuffing.
I actually think that's a pretty good price. Considering how big they are, if you compare them to cookies you would buy at a Mrs. Field's type store, the cost is comparable.
It’s just all SO EXPENSIVE! Especially LMNT! 😢 I still have to make most of my own stuff simply due to cost.
LMNT is crazy expensive. I will only purchase if I get BOGO or once it was buy 3 get one free- crazy!!!!!
Terry leist has a video on how to make homemade electrolyte powder. It's easy too.

Pros and cons. We are getting a ton of toxins in our foods, water and sprayed skies. Its a gross agenda.
I know this will sound crazy, but I use french-cut green beans for spaghetti instead of pasta noodles. It's seriously good and deeply satisfying.

I have zero faith in companies considering how much they lie on labels.
