Keto-Friendly Foods Under 5g Carbs Per 100g
Almond (whole, raw) is genuinely tagged keto in our database, and also genuinely has 21.7g of carbs per 100g, well over any keto ceiling, a real flag isn’t the same claim as a real number. A ranking by raw carb figure alone would also be mostly ties at 0.0g, meat, fat and oil naturally sit there. More useful: one real, verified keto staple from every major food group, each genuinely under 5g of carbs per 100g and genuinely tagged keto in our own database.

A note on total carbs vs. net carbs
The carbohydrate_g figure shown on every food page here is total carbs, not net carbs after fibre. For the six foods above it makes little practical difference, none carry much fibre either way, but it’s worth knowing if you specifically track net carbs on a higher-fibre vegetable elsewhere in our database.
