Is Bear Creek Creamy Cheddar Pasta Mix Keto?

Bear Creek Creamy Cheddar Pasta Mix is not keto-friendly because it is a high-carb processed food that contains unhealthy ingredients like high fructose corn syrup, palm oil, and enriched flour.

Too Much Carbs!

Bear Creek Creamy Cheddar Pasta Mix should be avoided on keto because it is very high in net carbs (64.87g of net carbs per 100g serving).

It is important to limit your net carb consumption to 20g - 30g per day to stay in ketosis. You can calculate your ideal daily net carb allowance by using this keto macros calculator.

As an alternative, you may look for other pasta brands that are low in net carbs.

Contains High-Glycemic Sweeteners

Bear Creek Creamy Cheddar Pasta Mix contains high-glycemic sweeteners like high fructose corn syrup and maltodextrin. These sweeteners can raise your blood sugar level and prevent you from reaching ketosis.

Contains Palm Oil

Palm Oil is a highly refined oil that is prone to oxidation and may cause inflammation in the body.

Highly refined oils are usually extracted using high heat and chemicals. This process strips out the nutrients from the oil and replaces them with harmful chemicals.

It is important to get your fats from healthy sources so your body can burn clean fuel while on ketosis. You may check out our list of best and worst oils for keto here.
