Finding foods, or even the ingredients to make your meals with is not always easy for a keto diet. And where treats and snacks are concerned, it can be even harder as most are high in carbs so cannot be eaten on a keto diet. Thankfully there are many more companies now making good quality foods that are low carb, sugar and gluten free, but as it is not always easy to find these in your local grocery store, one way to try out a wide range of these products is with a keto subscription box delivered to your door every month.
In this review I take a look at some of the best keto subscription boxes out there. Whether you just want snacks to satisfy that occasional craving, are really missing your breakfast pastry or glass of red, or if you want a complete meal solution to take all of the stress out of preparing keto friendly meals, then I can assure you there is a box that will be right for you. Read on to find out more about these different types of keto subscription boxes, including what they offer, what they cost and where they can be delivered to. I also give you the lowdown on some of the things you should think about before choosing your box.Quick Comparison Between The 16 Best Keto Subscription Boxs

Buyer’s Guide for Choosing the Best Keto Subscription Box
As you have seen in this review, there are a variety of keto subscription boxes out there. The best keto subscription box for you will always depend on what you actually want.
If you struggle to find the time to prepare keto meals, then a meal box may be the best option for you, but if you are looking for treats to add to your diet occasionally, then a keto snack box will offer a variety of keto friendly snacks that are a bit different to the usual jerky stick, avocado slices or sunflower seeds. You may also find you get to taste some snacks you may not have thought of buying so it’s also good way to shake your diet up a little and try out new stuff.
Other boxes can include keto foods such as brownie or cookie mixes, almond flours, keto condiments and more. If you are new to a keto diet these food boxes can be helpful as there will often be recipes included to help you learn more about keto cooking and baking. If your cravings run more to enjoying a glass of wine, then choosing a natural wine subscription box will provide you with sugar free and lower carb wines which are also free from additional ingredients.
You can also find keto boxes for breakfast favorites such as cereals, bagels and pastries which have been developed to make them suitable for a keto diet. If these are the foods you really miss on keto, then consider one of these types of keto subscription boxes.
The boxes are usually curated by experts who have done all the hard work for you already by actually selecting the snacks/foods and ensuring that the nutrition fits into keto macros. When you are choosing the best keto subscription box, do check out the nutrition of the box contents carefully. Some boxes are specifically keto while others are low carb – which may fit well into your keto diet or may be slightly out in terms of nutrition.
Although companies that offer snack keto box subscriptions will rarely publish the contents before the boxes are shipped out, the websites will usually show you previous boxes or give you a good idea of what they will contain.
Look for boxes that state what the maximum net carbs will be on the snacks and also look for if they are organic, non-GMO, free from artificial preservatives as well as additives such as soy or MSG. As you will know, the type of sweetener used in snacks is also important, so check out if snacks contain maltitol as this is not the most keto friendly sweetener.
Although many keto foods are naturally gluten free, if you are gluten intolerant then do check if the foods are certified as being gluten free, otherwise there is a risk that they may be contaminated with gluten as they could be made somewhere that also handles gluten. If you need other dietary options such as vegetarian or dairy free, then check with the company first as not all foods in the boxes may be suitable for these diets.
Like any subscription box, the contents of a box usually cost less through your subscription than if you were to buy the products individually at the store. Some boxes may also give you discounts on buying more of the products in the boxes which means you will be able to stock up on something you really like for less.
Always check out whether you have to commit/pre-pay for your box. If this is the case, you may want to try out one box first as you wouldn’t want to sign up to something you’re not that keen on. However, the best keto subscription boxes allow you to pay monthly (or weekly if applicable), which also means you can cancel any time. Just remember to check out if there is a cut off point for canceling (such as three days before the box is shipped). You may also be able to take a break from your box which is useful if you are off on vacation or your snack stash has built up a little too much.
Budget can also be important when choosing a box. You will already know that keto is not the cheapest diet regime to follow and so keto snacks are priced accordingly. Generally, the larger the box, the more snacks it will contain – making it better value for money overall. If you factor in what you may need to spend visiting stores to get your hands on your favorite keto snacks, then the box may not work out that expensive. When you sign up to your box, double check that shipping is included otherwise you will need to add the monthly shipping cost on as well.
Pre-payment will usually reduce the cost of the box a little each month and pre-payment is also useful if you would like to give a keto subscription box as a gift. If you do want to gift, also make sure the contents do come boxed rather than in a jiffy bag or similar as we all know, it’s always nice to receive a gift box through the post.
