14 Keto Subscription Boxes You’ll Be Thrilled to Find on Your Doorstep
One thing no one ever considers before starting the keto diet? How tough it’s going to be grocery shopping before you become an expert on what’s keto-friendly and what isn’t. For the uninitiated, the ketogenic diet is a high-fat, moderate-protein, low-carb diet that calls for restricting your carb intake in order for your body to burn existing stores of fat for energy.
To save yourself time and effort, here are 14 keto subscription boxes that do all the work for you, whether you’re looking for new snacks to stock your pantry with every month, keto-friendly groceries to cook yourself or heat-and-eat meals that don’t require you to lift a finger in the kitchen. Many include keto staples like meat, fish, poultry, roasted veggies, zoodles and even low-carb desserts. And if you’re sweating the cost, these keto subscription boxes range from a $34 monthly snack box up to a $130 meat subscription. (Meal plans start at $4.50 per serving.)
Now, the only tricky part is deciding which subscription box is right for you.
