Beef Jerky
Beef jerky is a great snack for anybody on the go. They are typically very low in carbohydrates, but it’s very important that you check the nutrition facts. There are many over-the-shelf brands of beef jerky that have a lot more additives that’ll greatly raise the number of carbs in it.

Something else you need to be aware of is the salt content. Some beef jerky is extremely salty.
Yes, when you’re on a keto diet you need to make sure you can get your salt wherever you can, but there is such thing as having too much salt. This could dehydrate you and cause a slight problem with your body trying to get into ketosis.
Pepperonis
Yes, pepperonis. They aren’t only good for being a topping on pizzas.
You can think of pepperonis as being similar to beef jerky. They will give you fat and protein and are low in carbs but some kinds will have almost too much salt. So again, it’s important to read the nutritional facts so you know exactly what you’re consuming.
If you feel like pairing this snack with something else, like string cheese, that would be perfectly fine and acceptable. That may even be a preferred way to eat this snack.
