The 12 absolute best low carb snacks on the go! They’re all quick and simple to make ahead, plus easy to take with you anywhere in an instant. Finding good keto low carb snacks on the go can be one of the most challenging parts of eating low carb and gluten-free. Many typical low carb foods need to be refrigerated, making them less convenient to bring along somewhere. Besides, low carb finger foods are relatively hard to come by. The traditional wheat-filled chips and crackers, as well as sugar-laden candies, are definitely out. If you do try to find something store bought, most low carb snacks on the go are highly processed. What’s more, many are filled with questionable ingredients. Often times they are sweetened with high-glycemic sugar alcohols like maltitol (see my comparison of sugar substitutes for more info), chock full of preservatives, or even flavored with MSG. No, thank you! The good news is, it’s easier than you think to prepare homemade alternatives. There’s no reason not to make your own easy portable low carb snacks. It only takes a little planning to do it ahead of time. And, it’s so worth it. The result is having convenient keto snacks on hand to grab-and-go when you need them. I’ve compiled this roundup of the best low carb snacks on the go, so you have a handy list all in one place! They are all keto, gluten-free, sugar-free, and convenient to bring along when you’re out and about. I love making pre-made batches of these low carb crackers, jerky, pretzels, chips, granola bars, candied nuts, and more.
