Trader Joe's is one of our favorite places to shop for keto friendly ingredients and low carb, pre-packaged foods. As a grocery store intended for health-conscious people, Trader Joe's isn't the most affordable place to get tasty keto options, but it's often one of the healthiest!

Does Trader Joe's Have a Keto Section?

Trader Joe's does not have a keto section, but they do have a bunch of great items for a keto diet. They key is knowing what to look for while you're there, since they do not have everything organized into a keto section. Use this shopping list to find all of the best keto snacks offered at Trader Joe's and always keep an eye out for new products they might have.

Does Trader Joe's Have Keto Bread?

Unfortunately not, but there is hope that they will someday carry keto bread. Grocery stores like Sprouts, Whole Foods, and even Aldi have begun carrying keto bread, so Trader Joe's could follow suit soon. For now you can make our keto bread recipe or order online from The Great Low Carb Bread Company.

Is Trader Joe's Cauliflower Gnocchi Keto?

Nope. This is something newcomers to a keto diet will often get confused about. Just because something is made with cauliflower does not make it keto friendly. Often these products will use cauliflower in addition to wheat-based flours and other high carb ingredients. At16 net carbs per serving, Trader Joe's Cauliflower Gnocchi is not keto friendly.

Does Trader Joe's Have Keto Ice Cream?

Sadly the answer is no. They have recently come out with a "Light Ice Cream" but it is not low carb. It's made to be lower in calories but is not suitable for keto.
