Is Dean's Light Sour Cream Keto?

Dean's Light Sour Cream is not keto-friendly because it is a high-carb processed food that contains unhealthy ingredients like dextrose, carrageenan, and maltodextrin.

High in Net Carbs

Dean's Light Sour Cream should be avoided on keto because it is high in net carbs (10g 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.

Contains High-Glycemic Sweeteners
