Welcome to the FTS family, LindiLou and your husband!!!
The regulations the FDA uses in product labeling for carbs is VERY lax.
Most of the time, the labels are accurate.
However, we have found some out there that are blatantly incorrect.
The method I use to avoid such mislabeled foods is by reading the ingredients list.
The FDA rules on those are very strict. Labels must show ingredients in order by volume.
When you read a food label, I first look at the nutrition label carb counts.
If they look good, I then look at the ingredients list.
If ANY one (or more) of the first three ingredients is known to by high in carbs
(e.g. any sugars, wheat or rice flours, etc.), I DO NOT buy the product.
If you or your husband need any more help or other support, please don't hesitate to ask.
We are here to help one another reach and maintain our goals!
Tony
