Can you eat carnivore at Dollar General?
Dr. Ken Berry walked a Dollar General with a cart and a simple question: can you eat meat-based food when money is tight and the fancy store is too far?
He shows what to buy. Carnivore-friendly picks first. A few keto and low-carb options for people who want less restriction. Three employees stopped to listen and asked about the diet. A shopping trip turned into a real talk about food and health.
Why it matters: “meat is too expensive” is why a lot of people quit before they start. You don’t need a specialty store to begin. You need to know what to look for.
One shopping trip, not medical advice. His words, his store, his cart.
