    “Zero carb!” - a ton of artificial sweetener and fats. Makes up for the carbs twice over with fat, leading to pretty high caloric density

    That’s generally what you want when you’re eating low carb. Although the type of fat is important.

      Yes, but if you put away 5 keto protein balls (10g protein, 30g fat) you’re eating a lot of calories that 10g protein, 20g carbs (including fibre) wouldn’t provide. My point is that just putting the label on it doesn’t make it conducive to your goals.

      That’s before we get into “keto” products with 30-50g carbs per serving.
