Keto: net carbs 2g

If you are following a ketogenic diet (keto), you need to restrict your daily carbohydrate intake so that your body enters ketosis.

For most people, this means less than 50 net carbs per day.

Net carbs are calculated by subtracting fiber from total carbs.

Example:
A product with 26 grams of total carbohydrates and 9 grams of fiber will have 17 grams net carbs. Math equation: 26 - 9 = 17

IMPORTANT: Net carbs are per serving. Make sure you know your serving size or else you may go over your planned intake and exit ketosis.
For dieters: FoodPoints value is 1

The fewer points - the better.
Highly Processed!

This product is highly processed. If you'll take a look at its ingredient list, you'll discover new words to add to your vocabulary. Many of these ingredients are required to increase the shelf life of the product and improve the flavor that disappears when food is not fresh.
Contains MSG-like ingredients

People sensitive to MSG may also be sensitive to MSG-like substances. These are glutamates or chemically similar items added to improve a product's taste.

Here is a short list of common MSG-like substances (see our blog for more):

- Yeast extract
- Autolyzed yeast
- Hydrolyzed proteins

A note about cholesterol

For years, the USDA recommended an upper limit of 300mg of cholesterol per day. In the 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, this restriction has been removed for healthy adults.

However, if you are on a low-cholesterol diet, make sure you pay attention to portion sizes. This product contains more than 10% of the 300mg daily intake. 10% of your daily allowance can quickly become 50% when a hamburger turns into double cheeseburger.

Trouble sticking to daily goals? Try limiting your meat, cheese and dairy intake to one item per meal and avoid items with multiple sources of cholesterol (like chicken with ham and cheese, breakfast sandwiches with sausage and cheese, or bacon cheeseburgers).

Opt for items like BLT's, chicken sandwiches with veggies and meatless pizza. Choose water and not milk for your main mealtime beverage.
