If you’re keto, you know the struggle of finding yourself out and about without a single fat-fueler food option to be found. Luckily, there are a ton of keto-friendly snacks, drinks, and other on-the-go goodies on the shelves at The Vitamin Shoppe. Here are 13 of our favorites.
1. Quest Protein Cookies
