When I first headed to Walmart to look for Keto friendly products for this guide I was slightly disappointed by the selection. Whole Foods had at least double the amount of products and surprisingly had either the same or very similar prices.
SInce then though Walmart has ramped up their Keto selection and while they haven’t caught up yet, they are getting closer and you’re sure to find many of your Keto favorites when shopping there.
Does Walmart win on prices over variety of Keto products?
As I alluded to above, not really. For their own brand - which has little Keto friendly options it might be more affordable but over it seems like Keto friendly products are very similarly priced across stores and you’er more likely to find a big sale at an Albertson’s or Kroger or even Whole Foods from what I’ve observed.
What Keto friendly products are available at Walmart?
Read on to see what especially Keto friendly products I found at my Walmart in the suburbs of Chicago along with carb count, varieties available, my thoughts and of course: PRICE!
Same as the blog post on shopping Keto at Whole Foods, I’m sorting by:
Keto breakfast food
Keto lunch / dinner food
Keto baking products
Sweet Keto snacks
Savory Keto snacks
And noting when products are also vegan and gluten free.
For help on what to eat generally on Keto check out Keto 101 as well as the Blog overall that also has articles on how to shop Keto groceries at Aldi, Meijer, Trader Joes’s, Target and many mre.
No guarantee that your Walmart has all of these products. There often are regional differences.

Know of more keto friendly products at Walmart?
Does your Walmart have more keto friendly products? Please comment and I’ll happily build out the list. If you can, add the general area you live in to help other shoppers.
Don’t have a Walmart close-by? I’m including Amazon links to any Keto product available on Amazon so that you can still fill your cart and shop from home.
Without further ado, let’s get started!
Keto breakfast foods available at Walmart
Wonderworks - Keto friendly Cereal
3g net carbs per serving
Varieties: Chocolate, Cinnamon and Peanut Butter
Price: $6.98
My thoughts: I have not tried this yet and have not seen ingredients. I have heard that is has a great crunch and does not get soggy.
Kashi Go - Keto friendly Cereal
Proceed with caution. @chris.tosis reached out the the brand to enquire about net carbs as the label lists 19g Total Carbs, 6g Dietary FIber of which 3g are Soluble and 3 insoluble Fiber. It has Allulose which is not listed in the Nutrition Facts. They replied that both flavors come in at 10g net carbs . That makes them low carb but printing ‘keto friendly’ on the front of the package is misleading if you ask me.
Varieties: Dark Cocoa and Cinnamon Vanilla
Price: Don’t know yet
My thoughts: These are shaped like Cheerios which means they could be a fun cereal for Cheerio Lovers. Way too high in carbs for me too assuming the serving size is 1oz / 28gr
Birch Benders - Keto Pancake in a cup (see sweet Keto snacks for more)
4-5g net carbs per cup -> check your packaging. It seems the newer packaging might be 5gr net carbs while the one on Amazon is labeled at 4
You only need to add water to the mix and microwave
Gluten free
Varieties: Comes plain and in Chocolate Chip Pancake
Price: $2.48 <- all prices are based on the location I visited in the suburbs of Chicagoand may vary by location
My thoughts: I have not tried the pancake cup yet, but really enjoyed the keto cookie one
Smuckers - Sugar Free Jam
3g net carbs per serving of 1 tbsp
Vegan
Varieties: Strawberry, Peach, Raspberry - may vary by store
Price: $2.78 - $3.64
My thoughts: I’ve tried the Strawberry one in the past and remember liking it. I’ve since moved to making my own ‘jam’ my mashing strawberries and spreading them on keto bread
Ore-Ida - Just Crack an Egg - ONLY the Protein Packed Scramble Kit is Keto
2g net carbs
These are located in the egg aisle - Only the Protein Packed Scramble Kit is Keto friendly as it doesn’t contain potatoes
Just need to add an egg and microwave
Price: $1.98
My thoughts: I have not tried these yet
Jimmy Dean - Simple Scrambles
3g net carbs
Varieties: Sausage, Bacon, Meat Lovers
Price: $2.68
My thoughts: I really like these for once in a while. I usually Intermittent Fast, so don’t buy a lot of breakfast foods but I like those for lunch too or as a snack. Stick to ones without potato
Hormel Black Label - Oven baked Egg Bites
5g net carbs per serving / package
Varieties: Eggs, Bacon, 3 Cheeses or Eggs, Sausage, Bacon and 3 Cheeses
Fluffy mini muffins shaped eggs
Price: $2.98
My thoughts: These are more on the low carb side of breakfast options with 5g net carbs. I have not tried them yet.
Keto lunch & dinner foods available at Walmart
Folios Cheese Wraps (or the ones from Crytal Farms which are very similar)
Regionally available
0-1g net carb per serving. The front packaging shows 1gr net carb while the nutrition info shows 0g net carbs :/
Varieties: Generally these come in Cheddar, Jarlsberg and Parmesan. Most stores tend to carry Cheddar though
Price: ~$4.50-5
My thoughts: I’ve tried these and while I like them I find them pricey. You can achieve the same thing by piling up shredded cheese on parchment paper and baking it until it melts. I prefer lettuce wraps or low carb wraps and adding cheese inside
Crepini - Egg thins
Regionally available - so far not in Chicagoland as far as I know
These are egg-based wraps made with cauliflower
0g net carbs
Price: ~$3 for 8 egg thins
My thoughts: Better value for money than Folios Cheese Wraps. but the Egg thins are smaller than regular tortillas. They’re ok to try and then see if you like them
Mission - Carb Balance Flour Tortillas
4g net carbs per serving of 1 tortilla - these are more on the Low Carb side of things
These are considered ‘dirty’ Keto as they use wheat flour
As an alternative to these you could also get lettuce for lettuce wraps or egg based wraps that tend to have 0 net carbs
Vegan
Price: $4.24
My thoughts: When I started Keto these or similar ones from other brands were my go to. I do not taste a difference to ‘regular’ / carb heavy ones
La Banderita - Carb Counter Wraps
5g net carbs per serving of 1 tortilla - these are also more on the Low Carb side of things
These are also considered ‘dirty keto and they use whole wheat
Vegan
Price: $3.12 for a pack of 8
My thoughts: Similar as with the Mission wraps above: Once in a while these are good but nowadays I look for lower carbs when using wraps
Mac’s Chicharrones - Pork Rinds and Pork Skins
0g net carbs per serving
Gluten free
Varieties: Original, Spicey Buffalo, Bar-B-Q, Golden Crackling, Spicy, Salt & Vinegar
Price: $1.78 - 2.68
My thoughts: Pork rinds are a great way to eat something crunchy. I also love crushing them up and use them as breading.
Atkins - Frozen entrées
4-6g net carbs - not all are Keto, some are Low carb like the Pizza that comes in at 11gr net carb
Varieties: Ham & Cheese Omelet, Crustless Chicken Pot Pie, Beef Merlot, Beef Teriyaki-Stir Fry, Chicken Margerita and more depending on stores
Price: $3.48
My thoughts: When I started eating Low Carb and Keto I bought this to help me figure out what is allowed and what isn’t and to make mealtime easier. I think for this they are perfect. If you’re new to Keto, try them! I used to really enjoy Beef Merlot and Chicken Margerita. The portions are on the smaller side.
Realgood Foods - Pizza, Poppers, Enchiladas
3-4g net carbs per serving
Varieties: Not sure yet which ones Walmart will stock. They announced on 9/27 that their products are becoming available at Walmart
Gluten free, grain free
Price: $4 and up
My thoughts: I would recommend giving their products a try either when they are one sale - in store or online. I really like their breakfast sandwich. Was not fully sold on the pizza and so so on the Poppers. The Lemon Chicken Palmini bowl was good but I’d consider it more low carb than Keto. If you order online and use code ‘KETOANYWHERE’ you’ll get an extra 15% off! The code stacks with any other offer they run at the time.
Zone Perfect - Keto Meal Replacement Shakes
3g net carbs
Gluten free
Varieties: White Chocolate Coconut, Butter coffee, Pineapple Coconut
Price: $9.97 for a pack of 4
My thoughts: I have not tried any Keto meal replacement shakes
G Hughes Sugar Free Sauces
1-2g net carb per serving of 2 Tbsp
Varieties:
BBQ Sauces: Original, Honey, Hickory, Mesquite, Sweet & Spicy
Dipping Sauces: Honey Mustard
Marinade: Teriyaki, Lemon Herb, Orange Ginger
Other: Ketchup, Italian Dressing and more
Gluten free
Price: $3.26
My thoughts: Not sold on the Honey BBQ but loved the Teriyaki. I would advise to try your way through a few
RAO’s Homemade Sauce
5g net carbs per serving of 1/2 cup / 125 g
Varieties: Marinara is the lowest in carbs
Price: $6.24 for a 24oz jar - 5 servings
My thoughts: Good option for a lower carb tomato sauce. Aldi has a good one too. I personally no longer eat tomatoes to reduce even those carbs but if it fits your way of eating this is a great keto friendly option that is much lower in carbs than other tomato sauces
Primal Kitchen - Dressings and Ketchup
1g net carbs and up per serving of 1 Tbsp
Price: $4.74 +
My thoughts: I have tried their Steak Sauce and a few of their dressings which were great. You can also buy directly from Primal Kitchen with 10% off using code KETOANYWHERE at checkout
Paleo Powder - Breading, Coating
2g net carbs per serving
Varieties: Grain Free Breadless Breading with Almond, Flax and Paleo Powder pink as well as Seasoned Coating Mix with Almond, Flax, Paleo Powder Herbed Salt Free
Price: $7.96
My thoughts: I have not tried this yet but I’m VERY intrigued
Pörq - Panko Crumbs
0g net carbs per serving
Artisanal fried pork rinds
Price: $5.98
My thoughts: I used pork rinds regularly for breading and grind them in a mixer. This is a great option if you want to skip that step.
Lewis Bake Shop - Keto friendly Bread & Buns
0-1g net carbs per slice or bun
Varieties: Sliced bread and Burger buns
Price: $3.06
My thoughts: I’ve tried the sliced bread and thought it was great. With the wheat it is likely to raise your blood sugar levels but if you follow a dirty / relaxed way of eating Keto these are a great option
Natural Ovens - Keto friendly burger buns
1g net carbs
Price: $5.48
My thoughts: I haven’t tried the buns but I did try the bread which didn’t work as well for me as I tried to make a grilled cheese with it. It tasted quite vinegary once warm. That was when it first came out though. Highly possible that they’ve tweaked things since.
Keto baking products available at Walmart
Lily’s Sweets - Milk, Semi-Sweet & Dark Chocolate Chip Baking Chips
~ 2 g net carbs for a serving of 26 chips (14g / 0.5 oz)
Sweetener used is erythritol and it’s sweetened with stevia
Certified gluten free
Price: $4.97 for the 7oz bag
My thoughts: I have not tried these yet but am generally a big fan of Lily’s Sweets products.
Splenda Naturals - Stevia, Monfruit…
0g net carbs +
Varieties: Stevia, Monkfruit
Price: $4.98+
My thoughts: Splenda released this Keto friendly sweetener line in 2021. MUCH better than regular Splenda which is sure to raise your blood sugar levels.
Pyure - Granular Sweetener, Powdered and Drops
0g net carbs +
Varieties: Granular, Pwdered, Drops
Price: $4.28 +
My thoughts: A better sweetener option which should work great when baking Keto goodies or sweetening meals or beverages
Whole Earth - Stevia Leaf & Monk Fruit Sweetener
0g net carbs +
Varieties: Individual sachets
Price: $5.78
My thoughts: A better sweetener option which should work great when baking Keto goodies or sweetening meals or beverages
Carbquick - Biscuit & Baking Mix
2g net carbs per serving
Baking Mix you can sue to make a variety of things from Pancakes to biscuits or pizza dough
Price: $6
My thoughts: I have not tried this yet
Birch Benders - Cake Baking Mix, Frosting (see ‘Sweet Keto Snacks’ section for mixes in a cup)
3-5g net carbs per serving for the cakes and 0-1g net carbs for the frostings
Gluten free
Varieties: Chocolate Cake, Classic Cake, Ultimate Fudge Cake and Vanilla or Chocolate Frosting
Price: $5.98
My thoughts: I’ve yet to try these. Birch Benders ingredients usually aren’t the cleanest, meaning they will impact your blood sugar levels but their baking mixes in a cup are good.
Sweet Keto snacks available at Walmart
MunkPack - Granola Snack bars
2-3g net carbs per bar
Varieties; These come in Granola versus Nut and Seed. My Walmart only had the Nut and Seed in the flavors Salt Dark Chocolate as well as Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate
Price: $6.54 for 4
My thoughts: These are by far my favorite Keto friendly snack bars and I’m excited to see them at Walmart now. I usually get them directly from their site (save 15% with code KETOANYWHERE at checkout) or on Amazon. Check out more details thoughts in the Keto Snack Bar Review or in the Best of Keto Foods post!
Kellogg’s Special K - Keto friendly Snack bar
2g net carbs
Varieties: Peanut Butter Fudge & Chocolate Almond Fudge
Price: $5.99
My thoughts: I have not tried these yet but just LOVE that big brands are starting to see the Keto market!
General Mills - Ratio Bar
2g net carbs
Varieties: Lemon Almond
Price: $6.88 for 4
My thoughts: I tried these when they first came out and they were very firm, crunchy but I did not get much for the flavor. I’ve since heard that they have improved that.
Birch Benders - Keto Cookie, Birthday Cake and Brownie in a cup
3g net carbs for the Keto Brownie one and 4gr net carbs per cup for the Keto Cookie one
You only need to add water to the mix and microwave
Gluten free
Price: $2.48
My thoughts: I have tried the Keto cookie one and it tastes like a chocolate chip cookie cake. Nice as a quick snack and as a special treat
Powerful Bites - Sweet Keto Protein bites
2 -3g net carbs per serving of 4 bites
In the refrigerated section
Gluten free and vegan
Varieties: Double Chocolate and Chocolate Peanut Butter. Blueberry has 7gr net carbs and would fall more in the low carb category
Price: $2.98
My thoughts: I tried Double Chocolate first and could taste that they have peanuts (peanut flour) as an ingredient. I really liked the taste as it isn’t overly sweet and you get a nice mild taste of peanut as well as chocolate. I then tried the Chocolate Peanut Butter. That one tastes more like Peanut Butter and I personally did not taste the chocolate much. These are definitely great to keep in the fridge and eat a few here and there when you need a snack. I would buy them again and find the price reasonable.
Know Brainer Foods - Max Mallow
0g net carbs
Keto Marshmallows and YES! You can use them for smores if you figure out a way to make Graham Cookies Keto :D
Careful if you’re sensitive to caffeine. The Lightning Vanilla ones have Caffeine alongside MCT and Collagen
Varieties: Lightning Vanilla seems to be the most commonly available
Price: $5.49 for a bag of 3.4oz / ~100gr
My thoughts: I haven’t tried these yet but I hope to soon
Two Good - Yogurt
~3g net carb per yogurt
Varieties: Different stores have different flavors. Two Good comes in Plain, Vanilla, Strawberry, Raspberry, Coconut, Blueberry, Mixed Berries, Peach, Lemon, Mangi
Price: $1.24 for the individual size one. They also have 4-packs and tubs.
My thoughts: Great yogurt option. I used to always have a stash in my fridge and have tried all flavors. Great to add some granola to it too.
Slimfast - Keto Fat Bombs
2g net carbs per serving
Varieties: Peanut Butter Cups & Caramel Nut Clusters
The Slimfast Keto line also has meal bars and shakes
Gluten free
Price: $9.97 for a box of 14
My thoughts: I really liked the Peanut Butter Cups when I tried them. Very positively surprised.
Quest Nutrition - Keto Protein Cookies
4-5g net carbs per cookie
Varieties: Chocolate Chip & Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip
Price: $7.47 for a box of 4
My thoughts: These weren’t for me
Quest Nutrition - Bars
~ 4g net carbs per bar
Gluten Free
Varieties: Dependent on store. Mine had Oatmeal Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Brownie, White Chocolate Raspberry, Birthday Cake, Cookies and Cream
Price: $7.47 for a box of 4
My thoughts: I’ve tried a few different Quest Nutrition bars and so far have not found one I like
Halo Top - Keto Ice Cream Pints
2-3g net carb per serving - or 5g+ net carbs per pint
Make sure to grab the ones where the lid says Keto all over
Varieties: Caramel butter pecan, banana crisp pie, chocolate caramel lava cake and more
Price: $3.88
My thoughts: I tried them a while back and wasn’t a fan. Then I recently tried the Halo Top pops and those were love so I would definitely give these another chance!
Enlightened - Keto Ice Cream Pints
1-3g net carb per serving
Make sure to grab the ones where the lid says Keto all over
Gluten free
Varieties: Coffee & Cream, Mint Chocolate Chip, Red Velvet, Butter Pecan, Chocolate Glazed Donut and more depending on stores
Price: $4.98
My thoughts: After being a HUGE Rebel fan for over a year I finally decided to try Enlightened and wow, was I missing out. Their Butter Pecan is to die for. So flavorful. Similar to Rebel, place the pint - without lid and wrap - in the microwave for 30 seconds to make it creamy and enjoy!
Rebel Ice Cream
4-7g net carbs per pint
Varieties: Strawberry, Peanut Butter Fudge, Butter Pecan, Vanilla, Chocolate, Cookie Dough, Black Raspberry, Mint Chip, Coffee Chip, Cherry Chip, Triple Chocolate, Almond Coconut Swirl, Cookies and Cream, Salted Caramel - not each store carries all flavors.
Price: $4.97
My thoughts: This was my go to Keto ice cream for over a year and until I tried Enlightened. Now I’m partial to Enlightened. For all these ice creams I would microwave the pint for 30 seconds (after removing the lid and all foil) which makes it soft and creamy. Favorite Rebel flavors were Butter Pecan, Peanut Butter Fudge and Cookie Dough. I wasn’t overly impressed by Black Raspberry (not fruity enough) and Salted Caramel (could be more intense)
Breyers - Carb Smart Ice Cream
4g net carbs per serving
Dirty Keto as these use Maltilol syrup
Gluten free
Varieties: Vanilla, Chocolate and Peanut Butter
Price: $4.18
My thoughts: I have not tried it and am not planning too as I prefer sticking with ice creams that use ‘cleaner’ sweeteners.
Russell Stover - Sugar Free Chocolates
Net carbs vary by type
Careful with these! They have laxative effects - eat at own risk
Price: $1.87 - $ 4.97 depending on what kind you get
My thoughts: When I started Keto I got a bag and tried just one piece. I did not digest it well and have stayed away since
Lily’s Sweets - Chocolate bars
Net carbs depend on what flavor you eat. From 3 net carbs for the Dark Chocolate Almond per serving of 40 gr which is half the bar to higher for e.g. the rice crispy one which falls more into the dirty Keto / Low Carb / If It Fits Your Marco approach (IIFYM)
All Lily’s Sweets products are certified gluten-free, some are also vegan
Varieties: Salted Caramel, Sea Salt, Almond Dark Chocolate, Coconut Dark Chocolate, Crispy Rice Dark Chocolate, Original Dark Chocolate, Hazelnut Milk Chocolate, Salted Almond Milk Chocolate
Price: $3.48
My thoughts: My personal favorites are Almond Dark Chocolate and Hazelnut Milk Chocolate. This was my go to chocolate for the first 2 years of doing keto. They I tried ChocZero and now I’m torn between the two. Check the discount section for a discount on your next ChocZero order!
Other Sugar Free Chocolates & Candy
Net carbs vary
Varieties: Reese’s Cups, Wether’s Original, Hershey’s sugar free chocolates, Brachs sugar free cinnamon
Price; $1.98 - 6.23
My thoughts: Similar to the Russell Stover chocolates beware of carbs and laxative effects due to Maltilol being used as sweetener. Eat at own risk.
Savory Keto Snacks available at Walmart
Oscar Meyer - P3 - Portable Protein Snack - Bold
3g net carbs
Varieties: Uncured hard salami, pepper jack and smoked almonds
Price: $1.50
My thoughts: Great in a pinch and to take on the go
Parm Crisps
0-1g net carbs
Varieties: Original, Four Cheese
Price: $3.98 for the ones sold in a box
My thoughts: Pretty standard for cheese crisps
Whisps Cheese Crips - Mix bag Cheddar and Parmesan
1 gr net carb per 2/3 of an oz
Gluten free
Varieties: Parmesan, Cheedar, BBQ, Garlic Herb, Hot & Spicy, Tomato Basil
Price: $3.47
My thoughts: I don’t like these as much as Moon Cheese or Umland’s. Whisps are just as crunchy but for me their flavor isn’t as rich and cheesy as the others. Check the crunchy Keto snack comparison out for more details!
Quest Nutrition - Keto friendly Protein Chips
4 net carbs per bag
These are in the nutrition section with vitamins and meal replacements
Gluten free
Varieties: Ranch, Nacho Cheese, BBQ, Chilli Lime, Loaded Taco, Sour Cream and Onion, Cheddar and Sour Cream
Price: $2.48
My thoughts: I love these. I can’t speak highly enough of them. As snacks by themselves or the Nacho Cheese or Tortilla ones to make Nacho Cheese at home or crushed as breading. BIG fan!
Jerky’s from various brands like Jack Links, Vermont, Dukes, Slim Jim
0 - 1 g net carbs usually - careful with ones that have sweeter flavors due to being honey infused or so
Price: $2.89 - 10.94 for large packs
My thoughts: Try your way through a few until you find the one you like best. These are great for on the go and as keto trave snacks
Having created a Whole Foods list before this Walmart one I can’t help but continue to compare and come to the conclusion that Whole Foods - with it’s healthy, organic concept - caters more to the clean and strict Ketoer while Walmart is Keto friendly for the dirty / relaxed Ketoers who do not watch ingredients as much and don’t mind it if their blood sugar spiked after eating.
I feel like generally Walmart stores have more Keto friendly products though, so what did I miss? or what did my local store not have?
Also, if you prefer shopping online and with extra discounts make sure to check the discounts page here. Netrition is also fantastic to try new Keto products and buy just for example one bar at a time.
