Is Taco Bell Spicy Ranchero Sauce Keto?

Taco Bell Spicy Ranchero Sauce is not keto-friendly because it is a high-carb processed food that contains unhealthy ingredients like sugar, soybean oil, and modified starch.

High in Net Carbs

Taco Bell Spicy Ranchero Sauce should be avoided on keto because it is high in net carbs (10g of net carbs per 100ml 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 ranch dressing brands that are low in net carbs.

Contains High-Glycemic Sweeteners

Taco Bell Spicy Ranchero Sauce contains high-glycemic sweeteners like sugar and high fructose corn syrup. These sweeteners can raise your blood sugar level and prevent you from reaching ketosis.

As an alternative, you may look for other ranch dressing brands that use keto-friendly sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol.

Contains Soybean Oil

Soybean 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.

Contains Modified Starch

Modified Starch is a controversial additive that is included in our list of food additives to avoid for keto.

Food additives are potentially harmful to health and should be avoided as much as possible.

Most of your diet should come from minimally processed foods to achieve a healthy weight loss on keto.
