Walmart Grab and Go Low Carb Keto Items; Forgot your lunch? Need a snack? Here is a list so you can grab and go!
These Walmart Grab and Go Low Carb Keto Items ideas will help when we are in a rush. The goal is to give you ideas so you can go in quickly, grab what you need and be on your way.
Let’s face it; even with the best of intentions and careful planning, sometimes we run out of time in the morning to pack our lunch or just forget to grab it on the way out the door.
Sometimes we are kept away from home longer than we planned and need to grab something.
Here is my disclaimer about this list; it is always best to eat real food.
It is best to prepare food ahead of time and have it ready.
For the times that is just not possible, this list will be a help.
There ARE ingredients in some of these items that we should not eat too often.
I went solely by carb counts when finding these.
Many of these are great; the canned meat, precut vegetables, hard boiled eggs, cheese, nuts, pickles, and olives are real food and ready to grab and eat.
I included the nutrition labels so you can see ahead of time whether it is something you want or not.
Most packaged foods will have ingredients that some may feel are fine and others won’t.
I have saved you from standing in the store to read every label. You are welcome. 🙂
Who has time for that, anyway?
These are items I found in my Walmart. Not every Walmart will have exactly the same things but it will be a good start of what to look for, anyway.
I chose Walmart because most have a Walmart nearby. If you don’t, your store may very well have at least some of these items.
Once again, you will have a good idea of where to start. I hope this is helpful!
Many of these would also be great to keep in your desk drawer or purse for when you need them!

This is sooooo incredibly helpful. Just starting the low carb/keto life. It can be quite daunting, overwhelming and super challenging when you are just starting. Thank you for the tips for the lazy keto diet along with the other post on 60 items when shopping Walmart. I am feeling more confident now and not as stressed. You did A LOT of work! Thank you for your time and kindness

Thank you - this was very helpful (I spent 2 hours in Wal-mart last week trying to figure out what to buy and reading labels, before I saw this....) Although there are "pin" buttons - it says I can't pin this to pinterest :( Would be extra helpful if I could save this to refer back to.

Hi Stacy, I'm so glad this was helpful! I tried to pin it just now and it worked fine for me. I wonder if Pinterest was having a glitch when you were trying to pin it. I'm sorry I don't see any way to help from here. It looks like it was a problem on Pinterest's end at the time. Hopefully if you try again it will work.
