From most "white" to least "white":

Fructose. HFCS. Sucrose. Enriched wheat flour. Polished white rice. Potato.

Basically, anything with a high glycemic index and little nutritional value beyond the carbohydrate macronutrient.

So, if you're vegetarian and cut out everything you've just mentioned, what's left, exactly?

Everything green. Beans. Fruits. Whole Grains. Nuts. Dairy.

Um, vegetables, fruits, nuts, dairy, soy, etc.? I've been eating a vegetarian keto diet for a while now and have not been lacking due to a loss of sugar, grains, and starch.
