OK. I avoid sauce , can I take this frequently, we friends go out for eatinh like KFC very frequently 4 times / week .. Is this safe to consume every time. What about sodium ?

I would consider this cheese stick/finger high in sodium (493 mg per serving) even though it doesn't oppose lchf diet but it is not good for general health especially with high blood pressure if you often eat them in regular basis or eat too many of them each time. They probably contain other food additives eg. flavor enhancers or preservatives. It would be better for you to make home-made cheese fingers as you can control the right amount of salt as well as avoiding any non-necessary additives. Choices of salad is also good alternative healthy snacks when eating outside.

I can't opine on kfc but 12 g carbs is too much except you don't take any carby diet and stick to lchf principles. What kind of carb is there if not sugar ?

Avoid fat and oils in the diet (I mean fried food items). Ultimately it can cause block in the coronary arteries.

😃😃😃. My dear sir. You are quoting ada ama aha recommendations. If you don't take fats you have to take carbs and proteins. Both in large quantity are not good.

In fried items if good quality of fats like co vco ghee etc sfa are used they are not harmful but the items you fry eg flour refine flour, potato chips and all kind of junks are bad. Fat has earned bad name out of vested interest and connivance
