Keto diet weight loss at fast food restaurants? Memorize these 2 words
First up, there are two simple words keto dieters need to remember at any fast food restaurant: “No bun.”
In general, ordering a sandwich at a fast food restaurant automatically means the carbohydrates will be high because of the buns or bread, points out Healthline.
Typical burger meals from fast-food restaurants are high in carbs due to their buns. Request a burger without the bun and toppings such as ketchup. Instead, enjoy a fried egg, avocado, and/or mayonnaise for a keto version of a burger.

Keto diet weight loss at Taco Bell
If Taco Bell is your fave fast food, you can find plenty of keto choices, according to PopSugar.
