The Keto Diet is very popular nowadays and people who eat the Keto way want to know which
fast food joints offer Keto-friendly menu items. While preparing your own healthy meals
is something that should be a priority, there will be times when you're busy and need to
grab food on the go, or just don't feel like cooking. For those times, we are here to
take the guesswork out of ordering by looking at the top 10 Keto meals at fast food chains.
Wingstop - Chicken Wings (Plain)
If you love chicken and want to avoid fast food chicken menu items that contain breading
or other types of carbs, Wingstop will be a great option. Wingstop restaurants have
nostalgic, aviation-inspired themes. This restaurant chain bases its theme around the
pre-jet days of Thirties and Forties aviation. Wingstop restaurants popped up during 1994,
and this restaurant chain has its headquarters in Dallas, Texas, USA. In 1998, the Wingstop
company began offering franchise opportunities to entrepreneurs. At this point, there are
more than a thousand Wingstop restaurant locations open for business or preparing to open for
business. In the past, football legend, Troy Aikman, represented the Wingstop restaurant
chain. Wingstop is known for its boneless wings, chicken strips, wings, sides and dips.
To grab a tasty Keto meal at Wingstop, go for the Plain Chicken Wings. They have zero
carbs, which is great news for Keto Diet fans. Plain wings aren't the only option. Other
no-carb wing options include Atomic, Cajun and Original Hot flavors. If spicy hot isn't
your thing, then go for Plain or try out Garlic Parmesan or Mild. In general, all of the bone-in-wings
are quite low in carbs. We've focused on the zero carb flavors. For sides and dips, stay
no-carb with celery and carrot sticks and go for Ranch dip, which has 2 grams of carbs
per serving, or opt for Blue Cheese dips, which have 3 grams of carbs per serving. Stay
away from the boneless wings. Hickory Smoked BBQ boneless wings from Wingstop have twenty
grams of carbs per serving.

Five Guys - Bunless Cheeseburger
Five Guys is very popular. This fast food joint is also very accommodating when it comes
to helping out customers with dietary restrictions. While it’s not the right place for people
with peanut allergies, because it offers peanuts for patrons to snack on and cooks with peanut
oil, it's definitely a good choice for other Keto diet followers. All you have to do is
ask to get a burger or hot dog without the bun. You may also ask for a burger wrapped
in lettuce. Burger bowls are another option. Of course, you're going to have to forego tasty
fries from Five Guys and avoid carb-laden burger and hot dog toppings. If you're willing
to make these sacrifices, you'll find that Five Guys is a great place to eat a high-protein
meal that doesn't short-circuit your diet goals.
Bear in mind that french fries from Five Guys are really exceptional. You may need some
willpower to resist ordering regular or Cajun fries when you enter a local Five Guys fast
food joint, because everyone else around you will be shoving those fries into their faces,
unless they’re also on the Keto diet. If you aren't sure what to order, here's one
meal option to try. Ask for a Little Bacon Cheeseburger, without a bun, and request a
lettuce wrap if you want one. For toppings, go for mustard, mayo and pickles. With this
order, you'll get just one gram of net carbs, plus four hundred and seventy-eight calories
and twenty-four grams of protein. This is just one menu option of many. Five Guys is
highly-rated for good reason. The food tastes great. Plus, it's suitable for people on the
Keto Diet.
In-n-Out - Protein Style Bunless Burger With Cheese
In-N-Out is popular with celebs, such as Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, Reese Witherspoon and
Priyanka Chopra. Many stars love to gorge on this fast food chain's burgers after long
awards ceremonies. They don't seem to order their burgers bunless, but you can. When you
choose a Protein Style Bunless Burger with Cheese, you can indulge the Hollywood way,
without breaking your Keto diet. If your appetite is really hearty, go for the Quad Quad Protein
Style Burger, which includes four American cheese slices, four beef patties, special
sauce, optional onions, lettuce and a couple of slices of tomato. This burger contains
nine hundred calories, sixty-three protein grams and eight grams of net carbs. To lower
the carb count, don't order onions, special sauce or tomatoes.
If this "4 by 4" burger is just too much food, choose a burger with 3 patties, or go for
a Double Double. Another option is a bunless Cheeseburger. These bunless burgers get rave
reviews. This fast food chain has been around for seventy years. There are currently three
hundred and thirty-five locations. In surveys, burger fans rate In-N-Out highly. They love
the taste of food from this classic American fast food joint.
Buffalo Wild Wings - Chicken Wings (Buffalo Dry Rub)
Buffalo Dry Rub chicken wings from Buffalo Wild Wings have just one gram of net carbs
per serving. They are a good choices for Keto Diet fans, but they aren't the only option
at this popular eatery. Other dry spice-flavored wings, including Chipotle BBQ, Bacon Bits,
Desert Heat, Lemon Pepper and Salt and Vinegar are also "one net carb per serving" options.
The Chili-flavored wings have eleven grams of net carbs, so be careful what you order.
Now, let's talk dips. They do tend to have higher carbs, so you may want to skip them.
The lowest carb dip options are Mild and Medium. Boneless wings have higher carb counts. Stick with
the bone-in wings to stick with your Keto Diet.
If you want a casual dining experience, rather than fast food, this restaurant will be a
Keto-friendly option, and it's a good choice for takeout or delivery. Buffalo-style wings
are what this chain of restaurants is known for. Buffalo Wild Wings also offers chicken
legs and chicken tenders. Other stuff is on the menu, including tacos, burgers and salads.
Buffalo Wild Wings was established in 1982 and has a fun sports theme.
Chick Fil A - Grilled Chicken Nuggets And Side Salad
Chick-Fil-A offers Grilled Chicken Nuggets to its valued customers and these nuggets
are great meal options for Keto Diet followers. When you choose 4-piece grilled nuggets, you'll
be choosing a meal with only seventy calories, two grams of fat, one gram of carbs and thirteen
grams of protein. Even the 12-piece Grilled Chicken Nuggets menu option contains just
three grams of carbs. Order four, six, eight or twelve Grilled Chicken Nuggets from Chick-Fil-A,
depending on just how hungry you are. Add a side salad for more nutrients, texture and
flavor.
Chick-Fil-A headquarters is in Atlanta, Georgia. Chick-Fil-A differs from other fast food joints
because it isn't open on Sundays. This is a company which prefers that its employees
spend time with family and friends and/or worship on Sundays. Chick-Fil-A has been subject
to some controversy in the past. The company has donated cold, hard cash to organizations
that are against same-sex marriage. Some people love the fast food restaurant's values and
others don't. If you're ok with Chick-Fil-A's company philosophies and business practices,
dropping by for some Keto-friendly Grilled Chicken Nuggets will be a good idea. If you're
not, there are tons of other fast food restaurants to choose from.
KFC - 2-Piece White Meat Combo - Original Grilled
KFC makes delicious grilled chicken, so this fast food restaurant is a terrific option
for Keto-friendly dining. When you visit KFC, go for a 2-Piece White Chicken Combo Grilled,
and ask for green beans as a side, instead of the carb-laden fries. Order diet pop if
you want a drink. This meal combo will set you back about five bucks. Bear in mind that
the green beans are a little bit on the bland side. They've been described as tasting similar
to baby food. Unfortunately, no other sides at KFC fit Keto Diet rules.
Grilled Chicken from KFC doesn't have a high fat content, so you may want to boost the
fat by adding some butter. KFC provides margarine, rather than genuine butter, so you'll need
to bring your own along. Drizzling olive oil on your chicken is another option. Again,
you'll need to bring your own. If you're having KFC delivered or picking it up to eat at home,
it'll be easy to pump up the fat content with stuff from your own kitchen. KFC is a fast
food chain that is all about fried chicken, but the grilled chicken is really good, too.
This company's headquarters is, naturally, in Kentucky. Right now, KFC is the second-biggest
restaurant chain on the planet. McDonald's is number one. There are roughly twenty thousand
KFC locations all over the world and it has been around since 1952, when it was founded
by Colonel Sanders.
Jimmy Johns - Beach Club Unwich
Yes, Jimmy John's is a sandwich shop, but it's a sandwich shop that really cares about
customers with special dietary needs. When you patronize this fast food chain, you'll
be able to get your sandwich without a bun. It'll be wrapped in lettuce. Just request
an "unwich". That's how Jimmy John's staff refer to bunless sandwiches! Also, you should
know that this fast food joint has an amazing delivery service. You won't need to spend
much money to meet the minimum order requirements. Delivery is fast, too. Now, let's talk about
why the Beach Club unwich is a good choice for Keto Diet followers.
The Beach Club contains just seven grams of carbs. While it does have some carbs, the
level is low enough for some Keto Diet fans. When you choose the Beach Club unwich, you'll
also get 30 grams of protein. Total fat grams will be thirty-eight. The calorie count for
this unwich will be four hundred and seventy. This popular sandwich shop has been around since
the early Eighties. Today, there are twenty-eight hundred of these fast food restaurants. Give
Jimmy John's a try if you're getting tired of grilled chicken from fast food locations,
or bunless burgers. While you won't get a zero carb meal, you'll enjoy something a little
different which is quite low in carbs.
Wendy's - Double Bacon Cheeseburger With No Bun
Wendy's is an easy option is you're looking for a good bunless burger. We recommend the
Keto-friendly half-pound Double Cheeseburger, without the bun. You'll need to hold the ketchup
and onions too. When you order as recommended, you'll be choosing a menu item with six hundred
and twenty calories, 3 grams of carbs, forty-four grams of protein and forty-four fat grams.
Most people who eat the Keto way find that this bunless burger is pretty great-tasting.
Chances are good that you've already sampled Wendy's burgers, so you'll know what you're
going to get when you start ordering them bunless.
Naturally, you will not be able to indulge in carb-heavy side dishes, such as golden
french fries. Go for a Side Salad, without croutons, and ask for Avocado Salad Dressing
or Southwest Ranch Dressing on the side. Both types of salad dressings have two net grams
of carbs. Unsweetened iced tea will be a good drink of choice, as is has just .6 grams of
carbs per serving. Wendy's has been around since 1969, when it was founded by Dave Thomas.
These days, there are sixty-five hundred Wendy's locations worldwide. It'll be easy to find
a Wendy's when you need a protein fix.
Chipotle - Burrito Bowl
You may customize a Chipotle Burrito Bowl to suit your Keto Diet. Burrito Bowls are
burritos without their tortilla wrappings. Chipotle actually has a lot of ingredients
that are Keto-appropriate, so you'll be able to fill your Burrito Bowl with food ingredients
that suit your diet to perfection. For meat, you'll have a group of options, which are
barbacoa, chicken, carnitas and steak. Fajita veggies and lettuce are good veggie options
for your Burrito Bowl. To add texture and creaminess, you may add queso, shredded Monterey
Jack cheese and/or sour cream. The Chipotle salsas with the lowest carb counts are fresh
tomato salsa, tomatillo green chili salsa, red chili salsa and guacamole.
Chipotle Mexican Grill was founded in summer of 1993, by Steve Ells. The chain sprouted
up in Colorado and then attracted investment from McDonald's in 1998. McDonald's divested
by 2006. By then, the Chipotle Mexican Grill restaurant chain grew exponentially, to include
five hundred locations. Today, there are over two thousand Chipotle locations and company
headquarters are being moved to Southern California.
Popeye's - Blackened Chicken Tenders
When you go to Popeye's, you may feast on tasty Blackened Chicken Tenders. If you order
them and staff seem confused, ask for "naked chicken tenders" instead. What these Keto-friendly
chicken tenders are called varies by location. These chicken tenders feature zesty Cajun
seasoning. Choose mild or spicy. Order green beans as a side. The green beans at Popeye's
taste very good and only have four grams of net carbs. If you order five Blackened Chicken
Tenders in Mild, along with green beans as a side and a cup of unsweetened tea, you'll
get four hundred and seventy-seven calories, ten grams of net carbs, forty-six grams of
protein and twenty grams of fat.
Popeye's offer Lousiana-style taste and there are currently twenty-six hundred Popeye's
locations. Find one to enjoy Keto-friendly chicken that helps you to achieve your health
goals. This restaurant chain's roots go back to Arabi, Louisiana. The fast food eatery
