Salami

(Alicia) #1

I’m quite new to Keto and wondered if anyone knew if Salami is ok for a keto diet? I like German Salami and I never see it in any Keto recipes, which I think probably answers my question, but I wanted to check.

Deli meats aren’t ideal as they tend to have dextrose in, but plenty of people use them without any trouble.

Dextrose? Wow! it just sounds nuts to put any sugar product in with meat…they hide it everywhere!

I eat salami but prepare it with Italian girlfriends family so no sugar in there…assume you may be able to find some with the right ingredients.

I wish I was Keto when we made it! We cut it very lean! Never again!!

Boar’s Head beef salami is sugar free. I also like their Genoa salami but it does have a small amount of dextrose and sugar in it from the processing.

Thank you

Read the label, plenty of them have up to 2 carbs, which is acceptable to me. I love salami so much, grab and go fats and protein, that I can trim 2 carbs somewhere else.
