Low Carb Movie Snacks

Unless your movie theater is located in the produce aisle of Whole Foods, chances are there aren’t a lot of healthy options at the snack bar because for some dumb reason Swedish Fish don’t count as lean protein. So if you’re following keto or another low-carb diet, it can be tricky to find low-carb movie snacks to munch on.

That’s why we’ve compiled the list of 16 low-carb and keto movie snacks you can stuff in your purse or pockets and smuggle into the movie theater.

What Low-Carb Movie Snacks Can You Buy at the Theater?

Ok, if you’re not into sneaking your own snacks into the theater are there any snacks you can enjoy? You could opt for a child-size popcorn with no butter and a bottled water. Or stop being such a goody-two-shoes.

 

15 Low Carb Movie Snacks

These snacks are low-carb, keto-friendly, and perfectly portable.

 

1. Country Archer Beef Jerky

Jerky is a great low-carb snack that’s packed with protein and makes your purse smell vaguely like meat. Win win! Get it at Amazon.

2. Homemade Sugar-Free Gummy Candy

It’s unbelievably simple to whip up these gummy candies made from lemon juice, gelatin, and liquid stevia. Get the recipe at Whole New Mom. And you can make them in any shape you desire. That’s right. Clouds.

3. Roasted Seaweed

Need something crunchy while you ponder whether thicc Thor is hotter than six-pack Thor? Seaweed has zero net carbs, but gives you a bit of that crunchiness you’re looking for on movie night. Get it at Amazon.

4. Chocolate Peanut Butter Fat Bombs

Chocolate, peanut butter, coconut oil, and love go into the making of these creamy keto-friendly fat bombs. Just don’t tell the FDA. They’ve ruled that love isn’t an ingredient. What’s next on their chopping block — magic?

5. Roasted Chickpeas

These roasted chickpeas are spicy, crunchy, and are one of the few vegetarian options you can enjoy on a low carb diet. Get the recipe at Healing Tomato.

6. Vegan Chili “Cheese” Popcorn

This seems like a messy snack and not low-carb friendly, but if you keep the portion small, it’s alright. It combines freshly-popped popcorn with loads of cheesy, spicy flavor from chili powder and nutritional yeast. Which is at least fifty percent tastier than it sounds. Get the recipe at Shivani Loves Food.
