Keto can suck a big fat one. I don’t know if most people are familiar with a ketogenic diet but this mainstream “keto” fad diet has been corrupted beyond all repair. You’ll see box of “Keto Fat Bombs” at the store but the entire box is 100 grams of carbohydrates. Just eat a damn steak and be done with it.
Then you’ve got guys like DeLauer ranting about the most insignificant details and guys like Eric Burg telling you to eat lots of vegetables - and you end up wondering why you can’t lose weight. And Dr Jason Fung: Loved his book but I couldnt drop a single pound until I reduced my caloric intake - despite his mantra against caloric deficit.
And don’t get me started on Mark Sisson and his paleo diet. Might work if you live on the beach and exercise under the sun every waking hour but you aint gonna lose weight eating primal without finding a means of creating some sort of caloric deficit.
Keto concept itself is great but you are right on the mainstream fad angle of it. I’ve loved Keto when I was on it but the products sold to supposedly support the concept are garbage, just read the label.

For me, bacon is the one true answer. Lol.
