(16,092 posts)You can just order in Keto style at Carl's Jr. On Keto since cheese is allowable and Mayo ( in theory). It comes in a lettuce wrap w/out ketchup. Ive forgotten if they leave on the mayonnaise if the sandwich had it to begin with.
At McDonald's I'll order a quarter pounder deluxe with out buns, or ketchup, and with extra lettuce. It come in a little container with a knife and a fork. The deluxe has a little Mayo.
Keto purists say that it must be a Keto mayonnaise, which I use at home, but I don't sweat eating a little normal mayo now and then. I eat so little of it. If I'm near home, I eat there and put some sugar free ketchup on it
However, no fries, or soda, diet or otherwise. Maybe an unsweetened ice tea or a coffee, black, or with just cream (allowable on Keto). I dont use any sweeteners, either regular or artificial
