One concern new keto dieters have is whether they can afford it on the high street. The good news: UK supermarkets are increasingly stocking keto-friendly options.
These budget supermarkets offer excellent value on eggs, full-fat dairy, pork belly, chicken thighs, and tinned fish. Their nuts and seeds are also priced well.
Tesco stocks a wide range of keto staples. Look for Tesco Finest mature cheddar, cauliflower products, courgettes, and their free-from aisle for low-carb alternatives.
Sainsbury’s has a growing keto-friendly range. Their olive oil, avocados, and smoked salmon are consistently good value. The butcher counter is worth exploring for fatty cuts.
M&S is premium but their prepared salads and protein-rich ready meals can be useful for busy days. Their gluten-free bread alternative is surprisingly low in carbs.
Once stocked up, try our main dish recipes and keto breakfasts to make the most of your shop.
You do not need a specialist health food shop to eat keto in the UK. The mainstream supermarkets have everything you need.
